Only five species of rhinos exist - two in Africa, two in Indonesia, and one in India. Only 30,000 rhinos are spread across all five species. The number isn't significant enough to fill a football stadium to put that into context. We are very close to making sure the rhino population goes down even more. Unless we act, the rhino population will decrease to worrying levels. International Rhino Foundation works to ensure the survival of rhinos through strategic partnerships, targeted protection, and scientifically sound interventions.
