Forty years after the last one was poached rhinos are back in the wild in Uganda
What happened
Forty years after the last one was poached rhinos are back in the wild in Uganda stands out less as an isolated incident than as a marker of pressure building in the wider international picture. Hunting for the horns and meat, Ugandan poachers once wiped out the southern white rhinos from the country.
