2、Heini and his mother have been kept in a separate enclosure for Heini's safety. The little bull would be outcast from the herd for being blind and would be in danger of being injured. The zoo had to choose between putting him to sleep and operating.

　　为了海尼的安全，动物园不得不将海尼和它妈妈与其它犀牛隔离。由于先天失明，海尼不但会被同类孤立，还容易遭到身体伤害。于是，动物园选择为它进行眼部手术恢复，以帮它恢复正常生活。
