The entire rhino population is currently facing a grave threat. At the onset of the 20th Century, a staggering 500,000 rhinos freely roamed the wild, representing a robust and flourishing population. However, the situation has taken a dramatic downturn, and today, a mere 27,000 rhinos remain in Africa. This alarming decline in rhino numbers has prompted dedicated conservation efforts of Wildlife World to mitigate the impending crisis.
