It's good news, albeit in a troubled population. But a Sumatran Rhino was born in an Indonesian Sanctuary. It is rare good news for this species. Story
The Sumatran Rhino is the smallest of all Rhinos and only has 1 horn naturally (White and Black Rhinos have 2). It has already gone extinct on the Asian continent proper. It roamed from the mountains of India through Thailand, Myanmar, Malaysia up to Vietnam and China. Now they only live on 2 Indonesian islands - I don't know if they are in zoos for captive breeding.
But it is great news.
