White Rhinoceros

The white rhinoceros, one of the largest and most majestic land animals, is known for its impressive size and distinct two horns. In the wild, white rhinos are currently listed as near threatened due to poaching and habitat loss, which pose significant risks to their populations.

The Toronto Zoo is actively involved in the conservation and support of white rhinos through comprehensive research, specialized husbandry, and extensive education programs. Collaborating with other accredited institutions, the Toronto Zoo plays a crucial role in maintaining the genetic diversity and population stability of white rhinos within accredited facilities.

By adopting a Toronto Zoo animal, your support will help to safeguard the future of species, like the white rhinoceros, for future generations. Help us to preserve and protect our planet, and the incredible wildlife that call it home.
