Reason
The reason that these Rhinos are endangered is because of reasons that could be changed. One reason is poaching. These Rhinos are poached because people want their horn. Also they are hunted, because of their meat. Another reason humans hunt rhinos is because of their medicinal help. Many people from African cultures believe that these rhinos can help medically, but Scientists are yet to be sure. Another issue is lions and hyenas. Even though Black Rhinos are being helped they still are getting attacked each day. In the future we hope that the breeding camps and nature preserves work, but also the Black Rhino may become extinct. If you would like to find out how to help them check out the 'Help' column.
