Save the Rhino faces a range of challenges when it comes to monitoring the planet's remaining rhinos and preventing illegal poaching – all of which are of critical importance to the species’ survival.
Several criteria must therefore be considered and factored in when launching any related campaigns: the five different species of rhino and relative locations, the associated regulations and legislation in those regions, and more besides.
Namibia, for instance, home to a third of the world’s black rhino population, saw a 13% rise in recorded poaching in 2021, with 451 rhinos killed. For Save the Rhino, this wasn't acceptable. Nor several other challenges and injustices facing the species around the world.
Close monitoring of herds, supporting rangers, and keeping rhinos and rangers connected requires effort, funds, and technology - just some of the key areas Save the Rhino looks to tackle with our help.
