South Africa is home to 85 percent of the world's rhinoceroses. Demand for rhinoceros horn from wealthy consumers in Asia has pushed African rhinos to the brink of extinction. Today there are only 25,000 rhinos left in the world. At Kruger National Park, rhinos are being poached at an alarming rate. Now the park is selling off some of its rhinos in the hope of protecting them.
