White Rhino in Ink

 This white rhino was drawn with a bamboo pen and ink.


There are two genetically different subspecies of white rhino - Northern and Southern. As of March 2018 there are only two Northern white rhinos left, both of them female. [Kenya]. The last males died in 2018 but sperm was collected to fertilize eggs. Of the two females left, one has been retired from the breeding program due to age and health.

    I do hope they may be successful with the one female rhino left in the breeding programme.
