Climate change has started impacting species, ecosystems, genetic diversity within species, and ecological interactions and is thus a serious threat to conserving biodiversity globally. In the absence of adequate adaptation measures, biodiversity may continue to decline, and many species will... |

Sumatran Rhino
|
| Diverse assemblages of seed-dispersing megafauna once existed in Asian rainforests, but are now almost solely represented by elephants. Asia’s rhinos persist in remnant, ecologically-extinct populations and the most threatened of these is the Sumatran rhino, Dicerorhinus sumatrensis. To underst... |

| The rhino population has dropped over 50% in the last 50 years due to poaching for their strong and durable horns. But where does this strength and durability come from? Unlike other animal horns, rhino horns do not have a bony core; instead, they are made completely out of keratin, the same mate... |
