Last Chance to See – Northern White Rhino
2010 / 59 minutes / Tim Green
Mark Carwardine travels across East Africa in search of the critically endangered Northern White Rhino, last known to survive in the wild in the DRC’s Garamba National Park. Political conflict prevents the team from reaching the rhinos, but along the way they visit chimpanzee rehabilitation projects, track mountain gorillas in Uganda, and witness successful elephant conservation efforts. The episode highlights both the difficulties and importance of wildlife conservation, showing that protecting endangered species remains vital even when success is uncertain.
