In March 1995, Sabah was allocated $411,334 for a 3-year rhino project under the sponsorship of the Global Environmental Facility (GEF) of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). This funding is mainly for the provision of facilities, manpower and technical support for the protection of this endangered species in situ. It incorporates minimal provision for captive breeding. The Wildlife Department, with the advice of Dr. Tom Foose and Dr. Nico van Strien, decided to activate its own breeding programme in July 1995.
