No rhino, saving the rest

Tragic fate: Iman, the last surviving female Sumatran rhino, died on Nov 23, 2019. Sabah’s wildlife conservationists want to ensure that no other species die out like the Sumatran rhinoceros.

KOTA KINABALU: Efforts are underway by Sabah’s wildlife conservationists to ensure that no other species disappear, by making sure that they continue to thrive through specific breeding programmes, including assisted reproduction in the future.

This comes after the Sumatran rhinoceros went extinct in the wild in 2019.
