It's stuff like this that makes me sure mankind will eventually wipe itself out. Let's hope we don't take too many more species with us.

So true Livia,we have not been very good to the planet so far and we seem to get worse , everyone just doesn't seem to think the worst will ever happen,but for sure it will.

It's only 200 years since the industrial revolution, and since then we've raped and pillaged this planet... and we think we're so bloody advanced.

People can be selfish and evil in alot of things that we do to the animal kingdom just for our own benefit. You take the advanced technology away from us and alot of us would probably turn into barbaric animals and start showing our true colours. It's ashame what's happening to the Rhinos, Tigers, and Snow Leopards and any other animal that's endangered.

That's the scariest part really. Millions of years of natural history, 6000+ years of human history... and we've managed to cause untold damage in the last couple of short centuries. I doubt we can even imagine what we're capable of in the next 200 .

this is awful, to see an animal like this become extinct in our lifetime is so depressing

...Sudan.....he was a beautiful beast...rhinos are one of my favourite animals...My grandad always used to say I was like a rhino barging around and bumping into this and bumping into that...sadly, protected species can’t always be protected...because of so many different things in countries...we talk so much about humans ‘fleeing countries../war torn countries etc..’...with immigration etc...but animals can’t flee, they can’t leave to ‘self preserve and flourish’ ..and can’t always be protected in their environment...so very sad... |

How certain species are dwindling at an alarming rate worries me.

There are still two female northern white rhinos alive so they're not extinct yet, I think they're looking into ways of artificially inseminating them

I know but he was the last male,and if this insemination doesn't work,what then? We shouldn't really have to do things like that anyway.
