| During the periods of full moon from May to October 1980, black rhinoceroses were censused at all the important waterholes in the Etosha National Park. The results indicate an increase in the rhinoceros population which was substantially higher than expected. However, the high population in the ... |

| We estimate that in 1984 there are 8-9,000 black rhinos, about 3,920 southern white rhinos and near to 20 northern white rhinos. The 40% decline in estimates of black rhinos results partly from improved estimates of previously little-known populations, but predominantly from poaching losses. So... |

| By using Groves' (1967) classification of black rhino subspecies and their geographic distribution, we can get some idea of how the seven recognized races have fared (Table 2). The three subspecies occupying the northern-most range, ladoensis, brucii and longipes, have virtually been exterminate... |
