The name chukuru is a Southern African word for rhinoceros, in the Setswana language. The Sascoc mascot features the five colours of the Olympic rings around its horn, but fittingly these are also the colours of the South African flag. The cheerful animal was designed by the Johannesburg-based Mortimer Harvey advertising agency, and saw off competition from over 100 entries to make it to the final six and then claim top spot, winning by a margin of 233 over its closest rival.
“We knew, straight away that this was a-once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” said designer Vanessa de Castro. “It was a chance to create something that would represent our Olympic team and the hopes and pride of the entire country. It doesn’t get better than that.” Codesigner Prudence Tshikalange was elated, saying that the design team was “honoured and humbled”. Mortimer Harvey also hopes that the national sporting mascot will raise awareness about the poaching crisis affecting real-life rhinos. With almost 160 animals already killed for their horns in South Africa alone in the first quarter of 2012, and reports of even rhino exhibits being vandalised for the horns, there is a growing worldwide call for toughter action against and harsher punshment for poachers.]]> SASCOC News: The South African public voted Chukuru as their favourite in the mascot race.
