Rhinos of the World

Rhinoceroses, despite being among the world's most loved large herbivores, are also among the world's most endangered. While brutal and indiscriminate poaching for their horns has been the single biggest threat to their existence, habitat loss too has played its part. 5 extant species; two in Africa and 3 in Asia survive today on the very brink of extinction. Africa's White or Square-lipped Rhino is the world's largest rhinoceros, while the Sumatran Rhino the smallest (and hairiest!). Three species, the Black, Javan and Sumatran Rhinos are critically endangered, while several subspecies are either critically endangered or already functionally or regionally extinct (e.g. Bornean Rhinoceros, Northern White Rhinoceros, Chittagong Rhinoceros).

2019 was not exactly a good year for conservation in India, but India's conservation biologists have still made several breakthroughs. Here are just some of the newly discovered species of fauna and flora from 2019. And much like the Impatiens balsam, I too am already impatient about the discoveries that 2020 will bring!

Iranian Cheetah conservationists representing the Persian Wildlife Heritage Foundation were convicted for 'treason' last month, after being detained for nearly two years. Reports say that the move was sparked by Panthera founder Thomas Kaplan's stance on Iran and the Iran Nuclear Deal. Conservationists worldwide have condemned Kaplan, the extremist Iranian Ggovernment, as well as this verdict, which severely harms the cause of conservation in the crossfire.
