Bedrohtes Sumatra-Nashorn bringt in Indonesien Jungtier zur Welt
In einem Schutzgebiet in Indonesien ist ein vom Aussterben bedrohtes Sumatra-Nashorn geboren worden. Das Muttertier Delilah brachte im Way-Kambas-Nationalpark auf der Insel Sumatra ein 25 Kilogramm schweres männliches Kalb zur Welt, wie die indonesische Umweltministerin Siti Nurbaya Bakar am Montag erklärte. "Diese Geburt ist bereits die zweite Geburt eines Sumatra-Nashorns im Jahr 2023", fügte sie hinzu.
Laut dem Ministerium hatte ein Naturschützer das Kalb bereits am Samstag neben dem Muttertier liegend gefunden. Erfolgreiche Geburten der vom Aussterben bedrohten Tiere sind selten. 2021 war ein männliches Exemplar namens Andatu das erste Sumatra-Nashorn, das seit mehr als 120 Jahren in einem indonesischen Schutzgebiet zur Welt gekommen ist.
Sumatra-Nashörner waren einst in weiten Teilen Südostasiens und sogar in Ostindien heimisch. Nach Angaben der Umweltschutzorganisation WWF gibt es heute nur noch knapp 80 Exemplare der kleinsten Nashorn-Art, vor allem auf der indonesischen Insel Sumatra und auf der Insel Borneo, die von Indonesien, Malaysia und dem kleinen Staat Brunei geteilt wird.
Die Zahl der Sumatra-Nashörner ging insbesondere durch Wilderei und die Zerstörung ihres Lebensraumes stark zurück. Das Sumatra-Nashorn wird von der Weltnaturschutzunion (IUCN) als stark bedroht eingestuft.
