Saving Sumatran Rhinos: Updates from Kalimantan, Indonesia

Sumatran rhinos are a critically endangered rhino species. Estimates suggest fewer than 80 individuals remain, but it's hard to know the exact numbers. Conservationists from around the world are working on ways to try and prevent the species from going extinct. In this 3 part series, Mongabay explores the breeding programs that aim to save Sumatran rhinos in three locations where the species is still found.
This video is part 2 of the 3 part series.

collect their dna for future cloning. find any large island that free from tsunami or predator and use it as rhino sanctuary, through this way we can keep an eye on them more easily. indonesia has many islands. take few for conservation project. and when the spesies multilplying, translocate them back in sumatra. we can try this.

That’s actually a very good idea

[@chinchanchou]

Is a good idea but this reinos are very fragil

[@Kenny-bj2zq]

that is a great idea and I think that having species located in different areas is also good as something bad happens in one area the species will not be killed out in one blow

First need to have several sanctuary areas to help with bio diversity and to hopefully be used when population gets larger. The second is to seek aid from foreigners who have experience in breeding and also seeking financial aid from groups who help in assisting in saving animals. The third is to educate the locals in what a beautiful creature that they have and how help is need to save these beautiful rhino's from extinction.
