World's last male Northern White Rhino Sudan improves slightly

Sad news of the day is that while Sudan has improved slightly "his carers said his future was "not looking bright". BBC News has the story.

The 45-year-old is one of just three remaining northern white rhinos and is the only male. Attempts to mate him with the two surviving female rhinos failed, however, and an account was created for him on the dating app Tinder last year, not in order not to find love, but to help fund the development of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) for rhinos. The move won him fans across the world - many of whom were devastated on hearing news of his "ailing condition" last Thursday.
