In spite of the intensive hunting during the first thirty years of this century, which caused a considerable decrease in numbers and temporarily threatened its survival, the strict protective measures introduced during the past ten years have resulted in a gratifying increase. In the Sudan the Square-lipped rhino is numbered among the completely protected species of Schedule 1 of the Game Regulations and may only be shot or captured in exceptional circumstances with the special permission of the Ministry of Animal Resources.
