Rare Sumatran Rhino

The rare birth of a Sumatran rhino in Indonesia has been hailed a victory for the critically endangered species, which has been almost wiped out in the wild by poaching and habitat destruction.

A Sumatran rhino gave birth to a female calf at a sanctuary in Indonesia on Thursday, taking the critically endangered species a step further away from extinction.

Environmentalists have made physical contact with a Sumatran rhino on the Indonesian part of Borneo island for the first time in over 40 years, the WWF said on Wednesday, hailing a "major conservation success".

A rare, US-born Sumatran rhino arrived today at his new home in Indonesia, an official said, where it's hoped he will find a mate and give his critically-endangered species a shot at survival.
