Rhinos, like all animals, exist within an ecosystem. An ecosystem is a
biological environment made up of all the animals and plants living in a
particular area, as well as all the nonliving, physical parts of the
environment (like air, soil, water, and sunlight). Organisms within an
ecosystem are linked and impact on each other. Conservationist must take
into account the whole ecosystem, including local human populations,
when trying to conserve a species.
The rhino is what’s called an umbrella species.
Like an umbrella protects you from the rain, conservation of an
umbrella species can indirectly protect many other species. Because
there are millions of species of conservation concern and the resources
available for conservation are limited, it can be useful to use umbrella
species to make conservation decisions. In summary,WHEN YOU SAVE A RHINO, YOU SAVE AN ECOSYSTEM!
