Rare rhino spotted for the first time in 40 years
An endangered species of rhino has been seen for the first time in 40 years in Borneo, Indonesia.
The Sumatran rhino - the smallest of two Asian rhino species - was spotted by conservationists in Borneo, Indonesia.
The WWF has described this as a landmark conservation success.
In a statement, the CEO of WWF Indonesia said that now having proof that a species once thought extinct exists, the organisation will work to strengthen efforts to protect it.
Captured on Tuesday, the female rhino has now been moved to a more secure location.
The Sumatran rhino is the smallest of five species of rhino worldwide. It's the only two-horned rhino in the region and is characterised by a hairy exterior.
Asia is home of the Javan and Sumatran rhino which are both critically endangered.
