White Rhinoceroses: Returning to Mozambique 40 Years After Extinction

A group of rangers to repopulate the wild Mozambique he conquered and spent more than 1600 . about
kilometers from rhinoceroses black and white. The animals have been moved from South Africa to the park
National Zinaaf. It is also planned to move more than 40 rhinoceroses to Mozambique in the next two years.

Rhinoceroses are important to the ecosystem and that is why we are moving them until now and doing everything we can to get them there.

This is the first historic and longest initiative of renaturalization, many more will follow later. A way to also protect many endangered species and bring them to safe places, where they can then increase the population. The main goal is to renaturalize the park with a healthy ecosystem to attract tourists to the park and help the communities around the park.

So far, 2,400 animals, comprising 14 different species, have been introduced to Zinave. Only in the last 10
more than 8,000 black and white rhinoceroses have disappeared as a result of poaching in Africa
southern. The road to to protect this endangered species is its reintegration into new and just species
habitat.

The technical term is rewilding, a fundamental part of restoring nature and balance
ecological. This allows biodiversity to be reintroduced by reintroducing wildlife to areas where
time there were species. Preserving and restoring ecosystems is one of mankind’s most valid methods
available to mitigate climate change. In addition, it can increase the overall absorption of
up to 12 times carbon thanks to the creation of “carbon sink” ecosystems.
