Original text on this topic:
one hundred years later they were formally brought back from extinction in Botswana with the reintroduction of seventy-one animals to the Chobe National Park and nineteen to Moremi between the years 1974 and 1981. These animals were provided by the Natal Parks Board (saviours of the white rhino) with the Okavango Wildlife Society and the Frankfurt Zoological Society providing the necessary funding to translocate them.
