Horrible what us humans do to animals. Hope they can save them. They are magnificent creatures.
Am a human and I did nothing about their extinction, blame the human that lived in Kenya
@@ChrisFaremhumans as a whole, not you specifically. Dumb poachers.
@@stikzOSC Kenyans specifically lil bro thats what he meant champ
@@BigVik1111 I know but not only Kenyans did that, everybody around the world have from visitors
I hope we save them ( not taking credit ) + respect for the scientists who sacrificed their lifes for this!
Their extinct
@@barcaman1013 their not
We must do everything we can to save them
I pray that species is saved
Will we discuss the Chinese elephant in the room!???? They have them poached on the black market to grind up their horns for “medicine.” ADDRESS the PROBLEM!
What kind of medics specifically can you elaborate
Exactly
@@nonijoshi1082 They believe it helps with rheumatism, fever, nose bleed and preventing strokes. all of which can be cured in deferent ways by different medicines even natural herbal medicines, but chinese don't stop there they also pay for pangolins and even donkeys for their skin and other animals for medicines, that's aside from the dog markets and their belief that in order for it to be healthier a dog must be killed by burning or boiling while alive.
No, i will correct you on the matter. Horns are not used for medicine but for making statues, whistles, jews and knifes. Horns are a very reliable building material also used in the construction of many early medieval senegali monumental structures like the Fiļa d Lifä. Bene.
@@BigVik1111 poacher propaganda
This is so crucial why are they annoying her
by "annoying" her they are trying to revive the white rhino population so chill
This is truly heartbreaking what we do to this beautiful planet and its animals,I feel disgusted to be human 💔 😢
Please protect them save the rhinos
Those poor babies
this comment section is what lack of research does to a person, these people would literally believe that the world is ending as long as they have it come from social media chat channels
One or two seem misinformed. The rest are just getting off on upsetting everyone else.
So difficult to bring back more of a non-extinct animal.
And some scientists want to bring back the Woolly Mammoth. 🙄
lord krishna said every living thing is a part of me so how can man think of only himself 😢
Welcome to the Age of Kali
Truly heartbreaking man is literally killing everything. Im praying that they can reproduce it will be devastating if the white rhino becomes extinct.
There is finally something Europeans want to "save" in Africa, aside from a self-entitled sense of ownership of its natural resources. Now, this is a cause any animal-loving person can stand behind. 🙂
You spelled China wrong. They’re the ones leaching Africa dude.
Jeepers, the bad, bad whiteman SMH. Now the Chinese are graping the African countries.
This sounds kind of racist
@@genetkassa3813
Which part?🙂
Womp womp. Problem with free trade ? Go Ask what happened to those who thought they could live without it.
Goodluck to her
Buffalo. Rinos just the two I can think impacted me the most and I wasn't alive for one. There's so many others we've done it too and all for $ all the people who killed a rino are probably broke now
Update: they ran out of time
you’re not very bright huh?
@@zane5504 🤔explain yourself….
@@zane5504 you do know the last two northern white rhinos died and they are officially extinct now…?
@@Love_est87 WRONG very WRONG 😭
@@Love_est87 I have no idea where you're getting that. They are alive last I checked, and we have some 30 frozen embryos.
Ironic. Very same species that destroyed them is trying to save them.
well it wasn't the same people now was it
It was the Africans who destroyed them. Now white people are trying to save them.
@@legionetrangere6682nice racism
It was the burnt ones @@itsome_guy
🙏
Playing God
God is human creation
No, we are trying to rectify our own mistakes
We're the ones who wiped it out in the first place
@@robertmarley8852 We play God when we take lives, no one seems to mind.
Jurassic Park 3 reference?
They’re gone
I have to ask you to provide a source or refrain from making such claims.
@@arianebolt1575 THEY ARE DEAD
@@da_veryfancyman The only thing I can think of is that thing on Facebook that the last one died. It's been floating around since 2018, when the last MALE died.
@@da_veryfancyman source: trust me bro
Literally 😢 😔
So that means there’s southern white ones left !
Yeah
Last one died
@@doomslayer4276 They are still alive
These "Northern" white rhinos are neither extinct, nor are they indigenous to Kenya. They are indigenous to South Sudan and DRC and were trafficked into Kenya. It's a beautiful story that attracts sponsors, but it's really just a huge cash grab.
They're trying to pull a subspecies back from extinction
@arianebolt1575 They were never extinct though.They're still present in their countries of origin.
Bickering over nonsense. Isn't it frustrating that some individuals seem more focused and concerned on the species reaching Kenya, than the fact that progress is being made😢Seems her best bet is to claim that they are native to some other countries. I mean even with the said places she mentioned, all they could do was just poach and allow poaching of these majestic creatures to their very extinction. We're at this point because they've poached 'em all for the Chinese market 🤦🏿♂️
Playing God is not going to end well for anyone
Officially dead as of today rip
I have no idea where you're getting this.
He's right. The last white rhino died this week. They are officially extinct 😢
@@jdub5981 Source? Because there were two left as of a month ago, and I have yet to hear otherwise from an actual source.
@@arianebolt1575both infertile females
In Berlin there füll Embryos which are implanted in southern White rhinos. So we maybe have a new Generation of northern @@Stick_out_gyat
Sadly it’s too late. It’s now extinct as of 8-2024. 😭😭
Besides the fact that the frozen embryos will still work if Najin and Fatu die, people have been claiming they're dead up and down this comment section and no one has yet provided a source, even explained where they heard it, or given a cause of death.
You're crazy
@@BlackAngel-mf6do Unnecessarily aggressive comment
Update theu are extinct
Saying it twice doesn't make it true.
It didn't work.. they died
I'm going to have to ask everyone to stop posting things like this. The two females are still alive, with reproductive efforts well underway.
@@arianebolt1575 I just realized this mah friend told me there's like 1,280 white rhino's left
@@VebWareEdits There are some 18000 southern white rhinos left. The two in this video, the last northern white rhinos, are as alive as they were when this video was posted.
@@arianebolt1575 alr thanks
Failed they are now extinct
Stop making things up
womp womp
No one cares, get a life dude.
