The White Rhino “On the Tip of Extinction” A presentation by Kyle Newton

The White Rhino Ceratotherium simum Ceratotherium: from the Greek cerato, meaning "horn" and therium, meaning "wild beast" simum: from the Greek simus, meaning "flat nosed“ There are currently approximately 11,330 White Rhinos surviving.

The Domain of the White Rhino Primarily Found in: Botswana Zimbabwe Namibia Northern South Africa Small Population in: NE Congo

The White Rhino lives in long and short grass Savannas

The White Rhino Food Chain

The Human Impact

White rhino trend is up but total numbers down 2.5% compared to 2001 due to estimate for largest population of southern white rhino (Kruger NP) declining substantially due to using more conservative figure for 2003 than 2001, and possibly in part due to sampling error (95% conf. levels around the 2003 estimate = ±23.3%). S.African total = 2003 figures used for State and Defence force areas and 2002 figures for Private, Municipal, Zoo & Biosphere reserves The South African southern white rhino total using only 2002 figures was 10,306 (quoted in earlier country totals). The numbers of southern white rhinos outside Kruger has increased by 809 (+13.5%) over the last 2 years and there is no evidence of an actual decline in Kruger. Subspecies totals >500 rounded to nearest 10 rhino. Exact Swaziland numbers of D.b.minor given to AfRSG but are being kept confidential until authority is obtain to release them. In the meantime the table shows an approximation to the true number. Poaching continues in Garamba NP and the latest estimate as of September 2004 is only 15.

Conclusion On the brink of extinction Must maintain protection Can recover –Numbers are trending up Rhino is important for the savanna With education the White Rhino can survive!
