The last male northern white rhino died in 2018. Only two female members of the subspecies remain. Neither of them can carry a baby.白犀牛包括两个不同的亚种：北方和南方。 最后一头雄性北方白犀牛于 2018 年死亡。该亚种只剩下两只雌性成员。 他们俩都不能带孩子。Southern white rhinos are more numerous.南方白犀牛数量较多。Researchers hope to use eggs and sperm from northern white rhinos to produce embryos that will be put into southern white rhino surrogate mothers.研究人员希望利用北方白犀牛的卵子和精子产生胚胎，并将其放入南方白犀牛代孕母亲体内。A surrogate is something that performs the duties of something else.代理

In this episode, Simon Jones, Founder and CEO of 'Helping Rhinos', describes his transition from a high level career at American Express to the different challenges of working in conservation.

Inside NATURE on PBSTalking Rhinos with Award-winning Journalist Rachel NuwerThis February, we aired “The Last Rhino”, a film about the three remaining Northern White Rhinos; Sudan, an elderly male, his daughter Fatu, and his granddaughter Najin. Together, they are last living representatives of their kind.
However, this dire situation hasn’t deterred a group of scientists from trying to rescue the Northern White. Using tissue collected from Sudan and his family, as well as frozen tissue from deceased rhinos, they hope to rebuild the population from the ground up.
Award-winning journalist Rachel Nuwer wrote an in-depth article about Sudan and his family for NATURE in 2016. Her article lays out Sudan’...

Nación Chancleta con Walo HDDe cuponeros a tecatosNo basta con que los políticos se han convertido en los verdaderos cuponeros, viviendo de lo lindo a cuesta del dinero del contribuyente, sino que ahora son tecatos. Que si un chavito aquí, que si un chavito allá, dame una "pejeta" que no tengo dinero para pagar esto y aquello. Para muestra, la "idea" de que para conseguirle dinero a la UPR, en potencia $10 millones, y es hacer "acuerdos con establecimientos comerciales para que los clientes puedan donar su cambio a la institución educativa”. ¿En serio? ¿Que el pueblo siga pagando por los horrores administrativos?
