Mac learns that he is trying to nab some poachers who are slaughtering, the endangered Black Rhino, for the reward. Mac meets with a woman who is also trying to stop them also. Together they try to help Billy and stop the poaching.

A $40,000 mechanical rhino was used in this episode to simulate the injury to the rhino.

At the end of the episode, aired in 1989, Richard Dean Anderson does a public service announcement saying that if the poaching isn't stopped, the black rhinos would be extinct by the year 2000. While the population numbers did indeed go down significantly in the following years, they started going back up before 2000 and by the year 2000 there were an estimated number between 1,000 and 1,300. The numbers have steadily gone up since then, though poaching has not stopped.
