15 Animals with Fewer than 100 Left on Earth

The Vanishing Javan Rhino


Rhino Rarity
The Javan rhino (Rhinoceros sondaicus) is critically endangered, with around 72 individuals left. Once widespread across Asia, these solitary herbivores now find refuge in Indonesia’s Ujung Kulon National Park. Poaching for their horns and habitat loss have pushed them to the brink. Do we really need their horns for traditional medicine?


Gentle Giants
These rhinos play a significant role in their ecosystem by creating pathways for other animals in dense forests. Think of them as the bulldozers of the jungle. Protecting their habitat is key to their survival. Let’s ensure they continue to bulldoze through the forests rather than become mere footnotes in history.
