World's first white rhino IVF pregnancy could save subspecies with only two living animals remaining

Scientists have carried out the first successful embryo transfer in a southern white rhino using a method that could pave the way to saving its critically endangered northern cousin from extinction.

The last male northern white rhino died in 2018. Just two female members remain now and they're under 24-hour armed protection at a sanctuary in Kenya.

Thanks to conservation efforts and reduced poaching, Africa’s white rhino population has rebounded for the first time in a decade. Once on the brink of extinction, the species has grown by 5.6% to 16,803 individuals in 2022. The implication is that we can save these majestic animals from disappearing if we continue to protect them and their habitats. #WhiteRhino #Conservation #Poaching

Though the northern white rhino is functionally extinct – following the loss of Sudan, the last known living male, five years ago this week – conservationists are finding hope in a technique that is creating new embryos using genetic material taken from him and two remaining females.

To mark the occasion, photographer Ami Vitale has released a new short film called “Remembering Sudan,” which will be screened at upcoming film festivals.
