A Sumatran rhino, the most threatened species of rhinoceros in the world, was born at the Sumatran Rhino Sanctuary in Indonesia's Way Kambas National Park. The healthy male calf is the first for his mother, Delilah, and father, Harapan. With only about 30 mature Sumatran rhinos left in the world, this birth brings hope for the critically endangered species. The sanctuary aims to supplement the declining wild population and potentially release rhinos back into their natural habitats in the future.
