A northern white rhino named Angalifu died at age 44 at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, leaving only 5 left of the subspecies in the world.


"Angalifu's death is a tremendous loss to all of us," said Safari Park curator Randy Rieches. "Not only because he was well beloved here at the park but also because his death brings this wonderful species one step closer to extinction."
