The Rare Borneo Rhino Caught on Camera

24 April, 2007 by Anni Poulsen

Regular readers of this site will know of my fascination with Borneo. So imagine my excitement when I read a press release from WWF this morning that WWF-Malaysia had caught the rare Borneo rhino on video!

The rhino doesn’t dance or anything like that in the 2 minute video, but there could be as few as 25 Borneo rhinos left, so the footage really is a scoop and very likely the only chance I and most others will ever get to see the animal in its natural habitat.

You can read all about how WWF-Malaysia secured the footage thanks to a video camera trap developed by Stephen Hogg on the WWF website. The footage itself along with some facts about the rhino is also available on the WWF website.
