Common tree names are not as specific as Latin, Botanical, Scientific Tree Names, so cross reference is necessary to ensure the correct tree is identified. Many common names are the same for different species of trees. For example the common name Palm Tree can refer to many different species of trees in may different taxonomic groups.
The southern white rhino lives in southern Africa. About 98.5% of white rhino occur in just five countries (South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Kenya and Uganda). Almost at the edge of extinction in the early 20th century, the southern subspecies has made a tremendous comeback.
Suni was one of just two breeding males left, a count that did not include Angalifu, since he was unable to breed. (Related: Czech Zoo Sends Four Rare White Rhinos to Kenya.) The southern white rhino, a related subspecies, is considered near-threatened by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, but lately has rebounded to about 20,000 individuals, according to the nonprofit group WWF.
