The world's last male northern white rhino has died leaving only two females left to save the subspecies from extinction. Rhinos have been on Earth for 50 million years. They have no natural predator except man, who is driving them to extinction because of the false belief that rhino horn has medicinal purposes. Loraine Ballard Morrill speaks with Heather Smith, President of the PA Rhino Conservation Advocates about local efforts to save this endangered species and why we should care. http://parcainc.org.
