A Sumatran rhino calf born in Indonesia
adds to the critically endangered species
CHERISHED CALF. In this undated photo released by the Indonesian Ministry of Environment and Forestry, a newly born Sumatran rhino calf walks in its enclosure at the Sumatran Rhino Sanctuary at Way Kambas National
Park in Indonesia. The critically endangered Sumatran rhino was born on Sumatra Island on November 25, 2023, the second Sumatran rhino born in the country this year and a welcome addition to a species that currently numbers
fewer than 50 animals. Most of the remaining rhinos live on Sumatra, several in captivity. They are threatened by destruction of tropical forest habitat and poachers who kill the animals for their horns, which are prized for making
ornaments and for use in traditional medicine in China and other parts of Asia. See story on page 4. (Indonesian Ministry of Environment and Forestry via AP)
