Jooba's Journey, the plight of the Eastern Black Rhino

The eastern black rhino, weighing around 2690 lbs, is one of the rarest rhinos with less than 740 left in the wild. They are solitary and aggressive, living in highland and savannah habitats, and are known for charging first and investigating later. Their diet consists of leafy plants and shoots. With large ears that rotate to detect sounds, they are adapted to their environment. Currently, they are only found in Kenya and Tanzania, with a 90% population decline due to poaching, making humans their biggest threat.
