Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Minute: On the last male northern white rhino

The world's last male northern white rhino, known as Sudan, has died leaving only two females to save the subspecies from extinction. Experts say Sudan’s death comes as other rhino populations around the world teeter on the brink of extinction, largely due to poaching. What does this mean for the future of rhinos? Dr Richard Emslie is an expert in rhino conservation; he tells us more about the rhino population globally.
