Since 1970, the Black Rhino population, native to southern and East Africa, has declined by 90% to less than 3,000. They are killed primarily for their horns. Trade of Rhinos has been banned for more than twenty years. Although having banned trading of the species, there still continues to be a great demand for Rhino parts.
White rhinoceroses are endangered for two reasons. Predominantly, they are threatened by poaching (illegal hunting) for their ivory. Habitat loss is also a concern for the white rhinoceros, as it is for most wild African animals.
Black rhinos are from eastern and central Africa.

Black rhinos should not be endangered. They are an important part of the ecosystems where they are native, just like all species. If they go extinct, they can't be brought back. However, they are in danger from habitat loss and hunting. At least the fact that they are listed as endangered helps to protect them, because it is illegal to kill endangered species or sell their parts.
