White rhinos are classed as 'near threatened' in the wild, with a population of only 17,500. Lots of zoos and safari parks across Europe are exchanging their rhinos in order to maximise the breeding potential of the captive European population.
白犀牛被列為瀕危野生動(dòng)物,目前全世界只剩下一萬(wàn)七千五百只了。歐洲很多動(dòng)物園和野生動(dòng)物園通過(guò)交流方式,互通有無(wú),提高犀牛的交配生殖率。
