Conservationists Rejoice at Endangered Rhino Footage


Decimated by poachers for its highly valued horn, the Sumatran rhino was once though to have been wiped out in eastern Borneo - but the camera trap footage demonstrates that one and perhaps more of the animals have managed to survive. The World Wildlife Fund says the footage was captured in June and August this year. In the wild, the Sumatran rhino once roamed across southeast Asia but today, fewer than than 300 are believed to survive.
