Years of widespread poaching and civil war savaged the rhinos’ populations, and the last few who remain are now protected by 24/7 armed guards at the Ol Pejeta Conservancy. Although they are already extinct in the wild, the wildlife sanctuary hopes to encourage breeding by replicating the animals’ natural habitats. In this short film by United for Wildlife and Black Bean Productions, hear from the men who guard the northern white rhinos as they share the special bond they have with the magnificent endangered creatures at the Ol Pejeta Conservancy.

This group of rangers are incredibly brave for protecting these northern white rhinoceros.
National Geographic Wow thank you to these rangers caretakers and all involved. I've seen a picture of a dead rhino with its horn cut off with a chainsaw a few years ago. Still makes me sad and sick thinking about it. This video makes my heart sing happy.
We're so happy you enjoyed this video! The hunting of rhinos is incredibly sad, but we are so grateful for these rangers who are protecting them.
Their selflessness and nobility will never go unnoticed. God Bless Them.
National Geographic Do they Know the Wae 😂
Give him a dog or companion that's all he needs
TO ALL THE PROTECTORS OF THE ANIMALS IN AFRICA, WE SALUTE U!
+Roy Se Amen to them! May these heroes always be.
AMEN!!
They are true heroes!
Kenya is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Thank you guys for helping keep it that way.
True

@iiaubs yes it’s the last male
😓Yep thats true
I wish my taxes would help these people instead of feeding a corrupt government
Joer245 wich govermant
So it's settled then, taxes we're required to pay aren't going to these animals so nothing will.
Joer245 You think the money that you pay goes to our government? No. Most of it goes to Israel.
Donald Trump 90 percent of the world governments.
This govt is even worse then the one you are paying to
You guys are total HEROES and BRAVE KNIGHTS-- Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and souls for protecting these precious, irreplaceable rhinos and animals!!!!
I HOPE YOU PEOPLE ARE LOOKING AFTER THESE 'HEROES'. They need it.
Kinda rude of you to say you people
Nightmare how is it rude if we are people?
These people have my greatest respect, and I admire their courage! In too many ways, they may be the only hope these animals, and their species, have to survive in this hostile human infested world.

Thank you to all those Heroes. We need You.

@@lasotahir3109 Maybe that is how he/she says it in their language.
These men are indeed heroes! If I could give them each a hug, I would. I'd also say Thank You for putting your life at risk to save these beautiful creatures. May God bless each and every one of you and keep you always safe! Thank You for all that you do!
2:24" now he is growing to be a big boy, it brings me so much joy " PoetRanger
My son will ask me one day why we don't have superheros on earth. I will say we do son. They are called Rangers.
That is beautiful. These rangers are our heroes too.
Power Rangers are called this people :)
These people are way cooler than power rangers.
Gambo Richardson Reading that put tears in my eyes! These men are true hero's you are Soo correct!!
Bs lie They’re the ones who killed for bribery greed rules in African nations I hv seen far too many cases yet the funniest 😂 thing that the blame each other for it. Talking about it protections lol
RIP Sudan ......salute you, all brave rangers who stood with him till his last breath ......may god bless u all
These Rangers have my HIGHEST RESPECT.
Everyday i see comments listen to nonsense about debates on animal abuses / poaching / hunting.. Etc... There Is a huge difference in people in the world.. Some have heart some don't. Some have feelings some don't. Some love animals beyond their soul. Some careless. And debates go on. Animal abuse goes on. But for me i could never ever accept any explanation about them issues. As there is none. All of us were put on this planet for reason. Even the animals. BALANCE!! And we destroy all of the good. Excuses are plentiful... So my HEART and PRAYERS go out to these and ALL RANGERS. There is a huge threat to their lives daily.. The love they show is enormous. Anyone who puts life on the line for another KUDOS!!! I truly hope all these rangers get to read these comments so they know how appreciated they truly are... And so SPECIAL!!! Thank you for showing us this clip... It's deeply deserving to know who these boyz are!!! Recognition!!! 🙏✌👍🙏
This is TRUE HEROS! Fighting, getting their families threatened, getting shot at and often killed and their names will never be heard of. They are the best. I SALUTE them ALL!
Thank you for protecting them! Because they are now more fragile than ever. They are equally as beautiful and important as we are.
Yes, these three northern white rhinoceros are definitely #worthmorealive
God bless the men who risk their lives everyday.
Why doesn’t stuff like this have tons of views 😔
dis myaccount because 2019
dis myaccount because people don't care and that's the main reason why they got threatened by extension
Sometime I feel ashamed for being a part of human race that for our selfish nature we destory our mother nature. But when I see some one doing something to protect the mother nature I feel proud.
The human race can be a bunch of idiots but I agree these people are beautiful
We all should do our very best to make the world a better place
Yes we could do so much to help the environment yet we kill it :(
we are not a race but a species
@@lorenzolobina4189 yes we are equal to every animal, plant, and insect
Proud to be Kenyan much love from Canada
I hope one day i can help them in a big scale,with something that can change the life of the animals and the rangers.I have so much love for the animals and nothing but the utmost respect for those who safeguard it.
I'm soo happy that these people are realising just how precious these animals are. They also bring tourists in to see these wonderful animals good for the economy of the country. God bless and keep you all safe. The world thanks you for your dedication on keeping these rhinos and all the other animals alive. Love you all
I wish every human being had the compassion that these rangers do and I am grateful for their service in protecting them.
This made me cry...
me too ...
Such a Real Hero's They are , Thanks a Lot All of Them From Faridpur , Bangladesh .
These men commit their everyday lives to protect lives that have no voice of their own. This video makes me happy as I watch that rhino cafe cuddle with these men whom saved him, this video makes me mad that parts of humanity try to slaughter these innocent and beautiful creatures, and this video makes me sad that these wonderful Rangers are not given more of a global gratitude for their selfless sacrifices. It takes a hero to save and nurture wildlife. I'm so touched by this!
I could not imagine see a future generation without these beautiful animals :'(... We need to save this specie....i don't want to see it extinct.
The last one died recently so... here you go you saw it extinct
GregWolf theres another one in this video
GregWolf isn't it just the last male tho? I heard there are only 2 females left and they will try to use this thing to make them have babies.
These fellows are amazing. I'm sorry that this job has to exist, but I'm so SO glad that people are doing it.
Bless you, animal warriors!
Proud to be a ranger we are the voices of wildlife and environment
The sad thing about this, is that we people doesn't treasure what we have until there's nothing left
Speak for yourself I do respect the animals that we share this earth with I have got more respect for animals then I do for people No-one has the right to make any species go extinct period...
@@kerry-annpeters885 this comment was made a year ago do u expect something
I am so impressed with these guys and their service to these wild animals. It warms my heart viewing these men.
My deepest respect to all these real heroes, what they do is priceless.
I love people who protect voiceless animals...especially those endangered species... May God always Protect them also...
Thank you all for being so brave protecting these animals. Thank you
A huge respect n love from India...God bless
these are the real heroes out there. hats off to these men, good on them, much respect
Its sad that a year after this was made, they're now extinct
Only two females left.
Actually there is still hope. Scientist are trying to fertilize the eggs with the frozen rhino sperm taken right before the Male died.
@@CC-nz2ox Is it the one male that called SUDAN??
A Hunt they aren’t, they saved male North African rhino sperm and were able to get 10 North African rhino eggs from the last two females let. They are saving them as we speak.
we'll see what happens with the fertilize egg in a couple months now, let's not loose hope
I have respect for these rangers!
God Bless these Heroes
I started crying. The amount of love and compassion just makes me turn into a mushball
this made my day. I m glad that in today's world people like them exist. so touching, I used to watch geographic video's of this animal and always ask my grandad and wondered why they have that horn on their nose. and now seeing that that animal is endangered, is really heartbreaking.
my beautiful country of Kenya
I want to go there and contribute because it's a really sad situation and it's not only happening in Kenya but all over the world, humans can't stop killing animals and harm them until their extinction it's just a cruel reality. They are completely heroes in my personal opinion
Helping preserve nature and animals is truly a noble effort, and we applaud you!
National Geographic how can someone who's got skills attribute to the contribution of this cause in keeping the rhinos safe? What standard or qualifications one must meet?
This is pretty awesome. You can feel the chemistry they have with the rhinos. These guys have an extremely hard job to do and they know it but they love it, thank you
These guys are the real heroes of our generation
These soilders, I salute you. You are not rangers, You are not warriors... You are LIFE, You are ANGELS, You are HOPE. God bless every single one of you. You will be guided by the one true love!
Thank you Guys for looking after the Rhino's..... You Guys are real Hero's, and the day will come when you will get 'Wings' in Heaven.... Dankie...Dankie !!!
Tony Nagy he died bro
Greetings kobe kobe.... Yes, i am aware Sudan died of old age, i've pretty much watched all the vids on Sudan/commented.... It breaks my heart. I am going to get a large Rhino stencil sticker to put on my truck in his memory. People get skin tattoo's, I'm going to make a 'Truck Tattoo'. If anyone wants to market/run with this idea, please go ahead, but please start with a Rhino Tattoo. I hope you make millions!!!.... Cheers Eh!
Last one died today, so much money spent on weapons and not a single penny left to save a species...
Not a single penny?
With all due respect that is false, there are scientists working around the clock to save the species from extinction as we speak, it began long before sudan's death.
hugothester rip. We people really took it for granted
Thank you China
I think there is a male calf left..which is shown in the video
Box Addict Can you please start with yourself, bye 🖑🖕
Great respect to them..
Hope that scientist will bring back those creatures...
This makes my heart heavy to realize in the world full of ungratefulness and cruelty there is a also gratefulness and love. Salute to every human out there who works to sweat to save every kind not just mankind. You guys are superhero.
So very proud of each and everyone of you blokes who look after the animals, THANK YOU
Damn that’s deep I’m inspired to help Those guys on there journey and I’m sad too see my counties animals die it just hurts to see depression in our animals because of our doings and I’m not trying to be like every other person who says this. Future gen (if this carries on)will never see the happiness these animals bring to earth regardless of just one species but for all and for all you people who haven’t been to Africa i encourage you to do so before it’s all over
Exactly! That's why it's important we be the voice for these animals. Thank you for your support!
The way these gentlemen talk about their animals isn't something we are used to hearing. Usually we only see them as part of a video. In the background. Without context. So to listen to them and hear their genuine love, admiration and respect for their charges is wonderful. I would watch an entire movies worth of film just to learn more about their lives. Truly dedicated, brave and impressive people.
Kenya is the number one country to be visited for me. Long live Africa! Greetings from the Country of Georgia!
RIP Sudan 😭😭
Bless these guys ❤
They r trully hero...I thank u to save rhinos, animals in your country..respect from Indonesia
You are real heros guys i salute you☺😙😢
Thankyou you are a person,you are a hero and this world needs to become like you guys.Thank you for making these animals life possible,I am sure even the animals know it too.
Thank you so much for your service. Stop the poaching!!
Some of them have too. Can't get jobs, little crops. Chinese offer them a way to save their families.
The real beauty of humanity is right here.
No matters how bad or corrupt our world is, this few brave man's gave's faith on our humanity..👏
God Bless and Cover them ALL! I Love Animals so much! God bless them.
i give them my respect. They are out true heroes.
2:10 may god bless them, cutest part of this video
We need more people with heart like these wildlife protectors. They have the right spirit; we are care takers of our planet, unique in the universe. We search for other life sustaining planets, yet we're struggling to sustain the one we live on.....
These men are heroes!!! Stay safe, guys!
Srsly dislike? Those dislikes are the poachers
Go and Google bush meat. Tons of poached animals (even roadkill) is smuggled out of Africa to London to feed the superstitious believes of Africans. Most of these animals are poached by these heroic innocent looking warders. Sad, but true.
@@Deontjie that's a load of bs and false news
Deon Van der Westhuizen You realize people can have Ebola.
I cried, thank you so much for your love, god bless Rangers
These are brave devoted men. I feel enormously grateful to them. xxxxoooo. Pacific northwest, usa
Thank u guys protecting our rhinos. This world is ours we need to protect it. Sad to hear about Sudan. But u people are our hope. we can do it.
These guys are awesome 👏rhinos are cute beautiful animals god is great 👍
It’s crazy to think these people would die for those animals. True heroes of the Earth, God bless them.
A perfect example of humanity. May God bless them.
THANK YOU. 🙏🏻
These guys are true heroes. They need the worldwide support
Respect to the people of this country for the care and protection of this beutiful animals!
have you ever cried because of such a beauty and bravery? human and animals are beautiful.
I want to be a part of this amazing project!
What kind of monster dislikes a video like this?
Poachers. :(
Sameer dont compare animals with trees ....
😂 and Chinese
Because i came here to see a raino die
@@pingukutepro
It's China not the whole of Asia.
give these men nobel prizes RIGHT NOW
Bless these heroes. They deserve the world
I hope those rhinos have babies 'cause nobody wants them to go extinct.
unfortunately the eldest two are too old to breed, but the youngest one may be able to breed with another species of rhino to create a cross species
@@joecowan7799 They apperantly have Sudan and another male rhino's sperm. It's still not decomposing so we might get a baby from that. Someone did inform us that they tried getting the younger rhino pregnant
My Heroes!
Thank you rangers for helping our wildlife it means a lot 🌎
Just one word 'RESPECT'🙏
