May 1 – Save The Rhinos

Rhinos are hunted by poachers and traded on the black market. Today there are less then 24,500 Rhinos left worldwide, down from 70,000 in the 1970’s. There are five species and three of them are listed as “Critically Endangered”.

Rhinos are very important part of the habitat in which they live, they are called Umbrella Species because in their habitat they help many other species of animals survive.
