Poaching and illegal trade continue to affect rhinos in Africa. But there is a ray of hope. The population of the black rhinoceros in Africa has recovered slightly since the dramatic slump since the 1970s. Between 2012 and 2018, the number of animals in the wild grew from an estimated 4845 to 5630 specimens, as the World Conservation Union (IUCN) reported on Thursday. Nevertheless, the black rhinoceros (Diceros bicornis) remains endangered.
