Veterinarian Dr Zainal Zahari Zainuddin says at the Borneo Rhino Sanctuary, they prioritise preventive measures against illnesses or infections in the rhinos.
“We weigh the rhinos every two weeks as their weight is an indicator of their health, and if they are eating well. Every month, samples of their poop, urine, blood, soil, water, food and the ground, are tested for hazardous bacteria and death-causing pathogens like salmonella, melioidosis, klebsiella or tuberculosis.
