World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Indonesia released rare footage showing the behavior of a Javanese rhinoceros and her calf. The group reports there are only 70 rhinos left in the conservation park, as the population has been decimated by poaching and deforestation. WWF plans to transport some of the rhinos to another area of Indonesia to guard against extinction in the case of localized disease or natural disaster.
The video shows the behavior of the rhino as it forages for food, rests and inspects WWF’s infrared cameras: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2008/05/080529-rhino-video-ap.html.
