"Across the world, one million species of wildlife are experiencing a sharp decline in population and are on the brink of extinction. Rhinos are one of the wildlife species that have existed for over 40 million years, far surpassing the history of human existence. In the past, rhinos could be found all over this planet. By the early 20th century, half a million rhinos roamed much of North America, Europe, Africa, and Southeast Asia. The five remaining species consist of eight subspecies, but which ones have already gone extinct? Here are the rhino species that are known to be permanently extinct along with other interesting facts!"
The translation of "1. Badak Jawa Vietnam" to English is "1. Javan Rhino Vietnam".
This animal has lost its footing in Vietnam, leaving only the Javan rhinoceros in Indonesia. This rhinoceros has been found in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and Eastern Thailand for quite some time. The last Vietnamese Javan rhinoceros was hunted, making this extinction concerning. In the seasonal tropical forest known as Cat Tien National Park in Vietnam, in April 2010, a female rhinoceros aged 25 to 30 years was found shot.
"Although the national park authorities state that there are between 10 and 15 rhinos, they cannot protect them over time. Compared to its small stature, the Vietnamese rhino may be identified as its cousin in Java."
The translation of "2. Badak Jawa India" to English is "2. Indian Javan Rhinoceros".
"Previously found in northern India, Bangladesh, and Myanmar, this subspecies of rhinoceros has been extinct for about a century. The Indian Javan rhinoceros was the first rhinoceros species declared extinct in 1920 by the IUCN."
"He has genetic similarities with the Indian rhinoceros and his skin is like a mosaic-shaped armor, but smaller, with a length of about 3.1 to 3.2 meters (10 to 10.5 feet) and a height of about 1.4 to 1.7 meters (4.6 to 5.6 feet). His horn is smaller compared to other rhinoceros species and often measures less than 25 centimeters (9.8 inches). Females do not have horns at all; only adult males do."
The translation of "3. Badak Hitam Barat" to English is "3. Western Black Rhino."
"The western black rhino also did not suffer the same fate, as they are the most recently extinct rhino species. Researchers use various methods, such as sighting records, dung evidence, and feeding indications, to determine whether a species is extinct. Unfortunately, this subspecies was declared extinct by the IUCN in 2011."
The African Sub-Saharan savanna once had a large population, but surveys since 2006 have not shown any signs of its existence. The western black rhino is suspected to have a unique genetic composition compared to other rhino subspecies.
to English is:
The population of rhinos has drastically decreased due to the increase in rhino poaching for their horns and habitat destruction. China and Vietnam are the countries most often harvesting rhino horns for the black market. Rhino poaching has become profitable because of the myth that the keratin in rhino horns has medicinal properties that can cure various ailments, ranging from hangovers to erectile dysfunction.
"Due to illegal trade, rhino horns are more valuable than gold in the black market, making it very profitable for poachers. Besides being used as medicine, rhino horns are often bought and consumed as a status symbol. In Vietnam and China, horns are offered as expensive gifts or investment opportunities; in Yemen and Oman, horns are carved into daggers and worn by men as a symbol of wealth."
"The rhinoceros plays an important role in developing and maintaining a strong and healthy ecosystem that supports hundreds of fauna and flora. In addition, there is a need for efforts to ensure the survival of the rhinoceros so that the ecosystem remains preserved."
