Bringing back the southern white rhino  Cover Image Book Book

Bringing back the southern white rhino / Ruth Daly.

Daly, Ruth, 1962- (author.).

Summary:

"Once thought to be extinct in the wild, the southern white rhino is now classified as near threatened and lives mostly on protected reserves. Over 100 years of conservation efforts have made it the only rhino of the five rhino species not listed as endangered. This engaging book explores how habitat loss and relentless poaching for their horns nearly brought this species to extinction. Readers will discover how this species was saved from extinction and whether similar strategies may help other rhino species in peril."-- Provided by publisher.
