Protecting rhinos
Protecting rhinos in the wild, through funding rangers, their dogs and rhino care.
Rhinoceros are a critically endangered species with less than 30,000 rhino living in the wild today. At the start of the 20th century, there were over 500,000. Human activity has caused this dramatic decline in rhino numbers. Initially, numbers dropped due to hunting, but today the main threats to rhino are poaching and habitat loss.
Together, we can stop poaching and habitat loss. With Save the Rhino's knowledge, and your donations, together we can get funds to where they are needed most.
Last year, we helped to build a new veterinary lab at the Sumatran Rhino Sanctuary, brought more than 50 people together to increase the effectiveness of anti-poaching canine units, provided care for injured black rhinos before releasing them back to the wild, and witnessed poaching numbers drop by more than 50% since 2014.
