World Rhino Day 🦏

Описание: Dr Philbert Ngoti explains the decline of the Black Rhinos in the Serengeti and Tanzania.

Rhinos face:

Poaching: Although rhinos are rare in the Serengeti today, illegal hunting for horns remains a danger, putting pressure on populations in nearby regions and reserves.
Habitat Loss & Fragmentation: Expansion of human settlements, agriculture, and roads disrupts the natural habitats that rhinos and other wildlife rely on.
Human-Wildlife Conflict: As communities grow near protected areas, competition over land and resources can lead to conflict and increased risk for wildlife.
Climate Change: Changing rainfall patterns affect the availability of food and water, putting additional stress on rhinos and the ecosystems they inhabit.

However, we should also celebrate that slowly, rhino numbers are increasing in the Greater Serengeti-Mara Ecosystem. We must continue to protect these magnificent creatures! Serengeti Forever!
