Today, only a small population of Javan Rhinos remains in Ujung Kulon National Park in Java, Indonesia. Despite having no scientifically proven medical properties, rhino horns are falsely promoted as cures for various ailments, including cancer, in traditional medicine. This misinformation fuels high demand for rhino horns in Vietnam, as well as other illegal wildlife products like pangolin scales and tiger bones. In addition to poaching, habitat loss due to agricultural expansion also contributes to the decline of this species. This story is told from the perspective of Vietnam's last Javan Rhino, revealing the dangers it faced and its struggle against the merciless poachers.
