| Megaherbivores (> 1000 kg) have been suggested to strongly influence ecosystem functioning with consequences potentially scaling up to the global climate. However, due to poaching, we may lose some of the most vulnerable species at functional densities in the wild in the coming decades. In thi... |

| The population of white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum simum) is now declining in the Kruger National Park (KNP) in South Africa due to the intense poaching crisis ongoing since the early 2000s. The need for an efficient conservation effort has never been greater and requires a better understand... |

| Boma adaptation is an important component of rhinoceros translocations to allow transition to new diets, restricted space, and quarantine for disease screening. However, up to 20% of recently captured white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum) do not adjust to captivity, resulting in early release or... |

| Ninety-six white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum) were captured between February and October 2009–2011 in Kruger National Park, South Africa and placed in boma confinement before translocation. Of these, 19 rhinoceros did not adapt to the bomas and required early release (n=18) or died (n=1). T... |
