There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

The Northern white rhino is next, unfortunately. There's no saving this case either, the only male does not look in good shape. Actually, one of the female northern white rhinos with the only male doesn't seem to have a genetic capacity to cut it in the wild, so even if they were to breed, the line would not be very fit.

 



Thats what I was speaking about, the N. White rhino. The male and females are under 24 hr protection by armed guards. Very sad to see..
