The numbers of black and white rhinos now are, they were improving and increasing over the last few years, but they’re having their problems now with poaching. There’s a rhino poached in Africa every eight hours now. And it takes a heck of breeding program to keep this flow positive. Fortunately, the rhinos are doing their part and they’re keeping their numbers of white and black rhino fairly stable, and the Indian rhino have done pretty well because the Indian government on a couple of the preserves, Kazaranga in particular, have been most successful. And they’re now well over 2000 of the Indian rhino, but rhinos worldwide are having problems for the same reason. People wanting to encroach on their natural habitat and also for poaching to sell their rhino horn for the primarily Asian medicinal market.
