Rhinos are believed to be nearsighted and rely on local birds like red-billed oxpeckers to help them detect any incoming threat. The last surviving Western black rhinoceros in captivity died in 2011, and then IUCN changed the status of this rhino species from critically endangered to extinct, despite various conservation efforts. However, there is no scientific evidence for this.
