Nola, the White Rhino Has Died - Only 3 Left in the World

This is Nola, a female northern white rhinoceros at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park in San Diego, California. She is too old to breed and there are also no other surviving members of her species that are capable of breeding. Thus, her species, is in effect, extinct. | Source

Nola, the female Northern white rhinoceros that lived at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park in San Diego, California, has died. She was one of only four living northern white rhinoceroses alive today and had been under veterinary care for a bacterial infection, as well as age-related health issues, when her health quickly declined over a 24 hour period, resulting in the decision to euthanize her. She was 41...

With Nola’s passing, there are now just three northern white rhinos left in the world, bringing the animals even closer to extinction.

“We’re absolutely devastated by this loss, but resolved to fight even harder to ‪#‎EndExtinction‬,” the San Diego Zoo Safari Park posted on Facebook. “We ask you to join us in that fight. Please share your memories of Nola and your condolences with the ‪#‎Nola4Ever‬ hashtag, and let this be a warning of what is happening to wildlife everywhere.”
