Why Coronavirus Could Lead to More Rhino Poaching

Live wildlife markets have temporarily closed across China and air pollution is dropping in cities around the world under lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic. That’s given nature some space to breathe even as the virus takes a toll on humanity. But in southern and eastern Africa, the risks to wildlife are rising as poachers…

Scientists Just Took a Big Step In the Race to Save the Northern White Rhino

Thanks to groundbreaking science, conservationists could save the critically endangered northern white rhino. Only two animals of this species remain—Najin and Fatu, both of which are female—and an international team of scientists have come together to harvest 10 eggs from the hopeful rhino mamas in the Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Kenya. And now scientists have…

This Story About Lions Killing Poachers Is Brutal

I think we can all agree that hunting rhinos is a bad idea, but at least two suspected poachers learned that the hard way earlier this week. In a showcase of nature’s brutality, the BBC reports rangers at the Shibuya game reserve in South Africa stumbled on a pretty gruesome find on Tuesday: the mangled…

Yao Ming Loved Sudan the Rhino, Too

The death of Sudan, the last male northern white rhino, has Earther’s staff really bummed. His death at age 45 was a major loss for the conservation community and the fate of his species now rests on in vitro fertilization. But we’re far from the only Sudan admirers. Notable enormous human and former NBA player…

The Last Male Northern White Rhino Is Dead

Death did not sneak up on Sudan, the last male northern white rhino, who was put to sleep on Monday after a months-long battle with a number of health complications. He was 45, and there will never be another animal quite like him. Sudan lived out much of his later life at the Ol Pejeta…

What We Can Learn From the Demise of the Northern White Rhino [Updated]

The health of the world’s last male northern white rhino, Sudan, is rapidly declining, bringing the subspecies’ inevitable extinction closer to a reality. Even as scientists and conservationists work on an ambitious in vitro fertilization effort, there’s little reason for hope that the 45-year-old Sudan and his two female companions—the last of the entire subspecies—will…

The Wildlife Photograph of the Year Will Haunt Us For Decades

Sometimes, a photograph expresses something more powerful than any number of words. That’s the case with this year’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year winner, a brutal shot of a rhino that was murdered and left intact except for its horn. For most humans, a rhino itself is a valuable thing worth preserving and photographing, especially…

Scientists Have a Wild Plan to Stop These Rhinos From Going Extinct

In a lush conservation park in central Kenya, the world’s last three northern white rhinos are unable to breed. When they die, the subspecies will go extinct. That is unless a complex, controversial plan involving tissue cryobanks and test tube embryos can actually work. After decades of poaching, a subspecies which once numbered in the…

This is the first video ever capture of a cat riding a rhino. And man, it does not look like an easy ride. It’s basically a real life Timon and Pumbaa. The “cat” in question is actually a genet, a relative of the mongoose that has a long snout, large ears, a cat-like body and…

Why Does This Rhino Have a Camera in Its Horn?

This rhino is loaded with technology: it has a camera embedded in its horn, a GPS transmitter around its neck and a heartrate monitor tracking its pulse. But it’s not just some weird wearables experiment—it’s an attempt to stop poaching. The new slew of rhino technology is known as RAPID—Real-time Anti-Poaching Intelligence Device—and it was…
