Sumatran Rhino (sumatrensis)
During 1985-1986, 3.1 Sumatran rhino were caught in Torgamba forest and installed in Port Lympne and Jakarta Zoo. The last bull to be caught, Napangga, is to be swopped with Julia at Malacca Zoo. This will leave for now, 1.1 at Port Lympne, 1.1 at Jakarta, 1.2 at Malacca and 0.1 at Bankok. Four more rhino are to be rescued from Torgamba and split between Jakarta and Port Lympne, so there is plenty of work still to be done.
