Inspiration
Sumatran Rhinos, once with a population size of ~1,000 in the 1980s, are now estimated to have only 80 individuals remaining in the wild due to increasing human pressures. A successful captive breeding program led by the Sumatran Rhino Sanctuary remains one of the last hopes to mitigate against the expected extinction of this species. We are inspired to utilize growth hacking and other online fundraising best practices to support this cause before it's too late.
