Wildlife Experts Find Tracks of Rare Rhinos
From Times Wire Reports
An expedition found evidence of at least 13 Sumatran rhinos deep in the jungles of northern Borneo, giving hope to conservationists that a species thought to be nearly extinct could flourish.
The rhinos were tracked into the dense jungles of Sabah state on Borneo last year by a team of 120 government wildlife officials, academics and members of WWF-Malaysia, the World Wildlife Fund said.
The survey team did not see any rhinos but found clear tracks of 13 individuals.
