Death of last male Northern white rhino

A few days ago the last male northern white rhino died in Kenya. His was called Sudan. I can`t stop thinking about that. The world I was born into will have less variety for future generations.

Poaching of headline species is only the tip of the iceberg.

Extinction is natural. The rate of extinctions we are seeing today isn’t.
