Malaysian conservationists caught on film a Sumatran rhinoceros thought to be pregnant, raising hopes that the critically endangered species on Borneo Island was breeding in the wild, an official said.
A remotely controlled camera set up in a forest in Sabah state on Borneo captured a still picture of the rhino on February 25, said Raymond Alfred of the World Wildlife Fund.
The rhinos' numbers are believed to have dwindled to less than 30.
