Say goodbye to the white rhino

These are the last Northern white rhinos in the world

This particular species is basically extinct.

These last two rhinos are females. 

The male rhino died earlier this year.

Recent research has suggested the northern white rhinoceros may be an altogether different species, rather than a subspecies of white rhinoceros.

It use to be found in several countries in East and Central Africa south of the Sahara.

The two female rhinos live in the Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Kenya and are protected round-the-clock by armed guards.
Najin, a female, was born in captivity in 1989.
She is the mother of Fatu.
Fatu, also a female, was born in captivity in 2000.

They arrived at the conservancy after an air and road trip on 20 December 2009 with two male northern white rhinos.
Suni, a male born at Dvůr Králové Zoo in 1980, died from natural causes in Ol Pejeta Conservancy in 2014.
Sudan, caught from the wild in 1975, died on 19 March 2018.

Neither of the females are "capable of natural reproduction".
Scientists from the Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research, San Diego Zoo Global, Tiergarten Schönbrunn, and Dvůr Králové Zoo think that, in the future, they might be able to grow more rhinos out of simple skin sells.
The DNA of a dozen northern white rhinos has been preserved in genetic banks in Berlin and San Diego.

Poaching is the main cause of their extinction.

Just Room Enough Island( Hub Island)

In the Ocean, separating Canada and the United States is house, a tree, some shrubs and a small beach sitting on one-thirteenth of an acre.

The fastest creature on two legs!

The ostrich is a large flightless bird native to Africa.
They can run for a long time at the speed of 34 miles to 43 mph.

The ostrich is the largest living species of bird and lays the largest eggs of any living bird.
When threatened, it will run away or hide itself by lying flat against the ground.

It attacks with a kick of its powerful legs. 

The ostrich is farmed around the world for its feathers.

 Its skin is used for leather products and its meat is marketed commercially.
The ostrich weighs 139–320 lb, that is as much as two adult humans.

They can grow up to around 9 ft tall.

They can life up to 45 years.

Their eyes are said to be the largest of any land vertebrate measuring two inches in diameter.

This helps them to see predators at a great distance. 

The head and bill are small for the birds' huge size.
The wings reach a span of about 6 ft 7.
The feathers are very soft and fluffy and lack the tiny hooks that lock together the smooth external feathers of flying birds.

Ostriches can tolerate a wide range of temperatures. 

It has no gallbladder and has three stomachs.

The secretes urine separately from feces.

Ostriches became extinct in China after the last ice age.
Ostriches are mainly active in the day but may be active on moonlit nights. 

They have acute hearing and can sense predators from far away.

They can go without drinking for several days.

Ostriches typically avoid humans in the wild.

If they feel trapped and attack they can disembowel or kill a person with a single blow. 
In some countries, people race each other on the backs of common ostriches.
