The estimated number of Square-lipped rhino in the Sudan is extremely divergent. Reliable estimates are not available since no survey has as yet been carried out. In general, from what I could gather, the number is depreciating. In regard to one habitat of about 200,000 km? in area, I estimated the total number to be at least 1,000 head. On this basis, I gauge the following to be the distribution of the Square-lipped rhino in Central Africa:-
South-western Sudan: 1,000 (Schomber, 1961)
