Rare Hairy Rhino Found. A Sumatran rhino has been found in an area once thought extinct. A joint research team, including members from the WWF-Indonesia and the district authorities of Kutai Barat, have captured this footage in East Kalimantan where the species had not been seen for over 20 years. There are fewer than 200 of the small, hairy rhinos left in the wild and they are on the verge of extinction.
