NOTES FROM THE FIELD | 2023 | No.8
Hope Lives On
[link removed]
In classic rhino fashion, Najin and Fatu spend their days grazing on
long savanna grasses, wallowing in mud, and dozing in the shade of
acacia trees. Beneath the warm Kenyan sun, their lives are those of
typical rhinos-except in one grave, notable way. They're
the last of their kind-the only two northern white rhinos

left on Earth.
By themselves, this mother-daughter duo won't be able to save
their species. Luckily, they're not alone. Together with
scientists, partners, and allies around the world, we're forging
a path forward for rhinos through our Wildlife Biodiversity Bank

. Here, hope lives on in our Frozen Zoo

®, where 12 genetically diverse, living northern white rhino cell
lines are carefully cryopreserved. These cells hold the key to helping
this iconic species recover-opening the door for assisted
reproduction and genetic rescue efforts, including cloning.
With you by our side, we're getting closer to unlocking this
frozen potential every day. Join us today, as we celebrate World
Rhino Day, and discover all you make possible for rhinos across the
globe. Plus, tune into our podcast, Amazing Wildlife, for the inside
scoop on rhino conservation, and the science and technology behind it
all.

EYES ON THE 'IO
Soaring across the skies of a single island, the 'io
[link removed]
of Hawai'i is a culturally revered local hawk species found
nowhere else on Earth. Yet surprisingly little is known about these
birds of prey, and with ongoing threats, including climate change and
habitat loss, a better understanding is needed to protect them.
Alongside our partners, we're finding solutions-and they
happen to fit conveniently in bird-sized backpacks. Explore how
together we're safeguarding the future for the 'io, and
helping technology take flight with solar-powered GPS transmitters.

TOGETHER FOR MAUI
A short skip up the Hawaiian archipelago, we're working to save
other unique and vulnerable native birds at the Maui Bird Conservation
Center. During last month's devastating wildfires, our team took
heroic action to protect the birds in our care. We're endlessly
grateful that all team members and birds at the center are safe, and
for

all the support you've given as we repair and rebuild in the
aftermath.

Our hearts and thoughts continue to be with the people of Maui, and we
invite you to join us in supporting our community as the island begins
to recover.
