Original text on this topic:
By the early 1900's the population of southem white rhinoceros, Ceratotherium simum simum. was wiped out everywhere except in Natal, primarily because of human predation and competition for resources (Estes, 1991). Desiccating climatic changes may have also played a role (Hitchins, 1992).
