Ol Pejeta (Kenya), Mar 20 (ANI): The world’s last male northern white rhino has died, leaving only two females of the subspecies alive. The Kenyan conservancy taking care of the rhino, named Sudan, said the 45-year-old was euthanized after a rapid deterioration in an age-related condition led to changes in his muscles and bones and extensive skin wounds. While there are thousands of Southern White Rhinos still roaming the plains of sub-Saharan Africa, rampant poaching has drastically cut the numbers of Northern Whites. Poachers can sell northern white rhino horns for 50-thousand dollars per kilo, making them more valuable than gold or cocaine.
