| Sumatran Rhinoceros, Dicerorhinus sumatrensis. Photographed at Sepolok, Sabah, Malaysia. These small (1.5 m at shoulder, up to 950 kg) rhinos live in the Danum Valley, but are rarely seen. Current estimates are that there are about 300 individuals left across its distribution. The Sumatran rhino is one of the oldest living mammalian genera, dating to the Oligocene. Today it is found in scattered groups in hill forests of Burma, Thailand and Malaya as well as the islands of Borneo and Sumatra. |
