Unflattering And Intense Nature Photos Guaranteed To Give You The Chills
The Last Male Northern White Rhino and Its Bodyguards
There are only two remaining northern white rhinos in the world, Najin and Fatu, and they are females. As Najin has already reached the age of 32, she is no longer able to breed. This photograph depicts the high levels of security surrounding Sudan, the last male northern white rhino, who passed away in 2018 aged 45.
Sudan and the two female rhinos, mother and daughter, lived at Kenya’s Ol Pejeta Conservancy, where James Mwenda and his team were responsible for their care. It was challenging protecting Sudan from poaching attempts, but the rhino eventually died due to illness. But scientists collected its sperm, hoping to save the species from extinction.
