In the wild, rhinoceros are hunted for their horns and their populations continue to dwindle. The Disney Conservation Fund supports projects focused on habitat monitoring and restoration.

Rhinos are the world’s second-largest land mammal. They have a gestation period of 16 to 18 months and babies weigh about 140 pounds at birth.
