Kenya’s black rhino numbers rising
Black rhinos in Kenya were on the brink of extinction three decades ago, but their numbers have since quadrupled from 240 in 1984 to 966 in 2024. This recovery has been attributed to sharpened-up security that has brought more poachers to justice over the past three decades. Kenya’s black rhino numbers have increased so fast that they are now overcrowding sanctuaries in the country.
