Lucy's note: This is a song for Kdg - 2nd grade to introduce a discussion about the conservation efforts on behalf of rhinos by the San Diego Zoological Society. the San Diego Zoological Society has won international acclaim for their rhino conservation efforts. The Southern White Rhino is the logo for the Wild Animal Park. The Zoo and Wild Animal Park have had success breeding the Southern White Rhino and Great Indian Rhino, and they have launched a program for the captive breeding of the Northern White Rhino, the Black Rhino, and the Sumatran Rhino. All species are on exhibit at either the zoo or the park except the critically endangered Javan Rhino. (The last known captive specimen died in 1907 in Australia.)
