Describes how the Southern white rhinos of South Africa are in danger of becoming extinct, facing threats from poaching, habitat loss, and low birth rate, and the efforts being made by scientists and volunteers to save them. - Lerner Pub Group
Southern white rhinos are in trouble. For years, a rumor has been spreading that their horns can be used to cure cancer, and poachers have been targeting these gentle creatures. Sandra Markle takes readers behind the scenes to see how civilians, volunteer organizations, and African governments are working together to protect rhinos.
