In December of 2009, the Lewa Conservancy in Kenya airlifted the last four breeding age Northern White Rhinos from Prague’s Dvur Kralove Zoo in the Czech Republic 4000 miles away to live “freely” at the Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Kenya. The Northern White Rhino is considered by scientists to be nearly extinct. As of 2009, there are only 8 Northern White Rhinos living in the world. Scientists hope that in Africa, the temperance in climate and the room to roam will entice them to breed and establish a nucleus for potential re-population. (Photo by Ami Vitale)
