They are the last surviving species in the same group as the extinct woolly rhinoceros. They are also one of the world's rarest mammals and are critically endangered.
Click on the images to read about them.

Well managed marine protected areas can protect critical habitats, fish and other marine life… they can also help reduce poverty, increase food security, create jobs and protect coastal com...

Ebyeng was the first village in Gabon to start “community forestry,” where locals manage their own forest. Today, it is one of only three permanent community forests in Gabon. Nearby, another group in Nze Vatican is sustainably harvesting their forest and running an artisana...
