There are 5 species of Rhino with populations - The Sumatran (30), The Javan (18), The Greater One-horned Rhino in India (2,100), The African Black (3,142) and The White Rhino which has 2 populations in Africa - The Northern Population (2) and the Southern population (10,078). Weighing over 3 tonnes, White Rhinos are the 2nd largest land animal after elephants and are named after the Africaan’s word ‘wyd’, which means wide, because of their square shaped lips. Their principal threat is being hunted for their horns which are prized for medicinal purposes. Their horns grow up to 7 cms (3 inches) a year and are made of Keratin, like our hair and nails. Their horns, their principal source of protection in Nature, has become their Achilles Heel where humans are concerned.

Population
The Miami Blue Butterfly is the size of a thumb nail and, being so small makes it especially vulnerable to everything, the weather, hurricanes are a real problem, people and predators. Their wings are a metallic blue colour and females are bigger than the males. There are reportedly less than 100 Miami Blues left, thanks in great part to the loss of their habitat and the plants on which their survival depends. We are destroying their home. Miami Blues were thought to be extinct at the end of the 20th century but further populations popped up. Sadly by 2012, just one population remained with 34 butterflies counted as left. The University of Florida is now working to recover this last small group of individuals and lay plans hopefully for a recovery of the species itself.

Leatherback Sea Turtles
The Leatherback Sea Turtle is the closest living relative to the dinosaur and the third heaviest reptile in the world (after two species of crocodile). They grow up to 7 feet long and can weigh 2,000 pounds, that's almost a tonne and they eat jelly fish! The population has declined by 40% since 1980 and there are just 25,000 nesting females left today after being on the planet for over 100 million years outliving every other species. Plastic bags, which they mistake for jellyfish, looks to be their nemesis. Our tempered glass tortoiseshell bracelet seeks to capture some of their magnificence in the colours especially as it captures the light. Leatherbacks, like other sea turtles, are greatly dependent on the Great Barrier Reef.
Sea Turtles
Sea Turtles can't retract their heads and legs into their bodies, so their shells aren't really homes as such, more like a shield. And it is this armour that's helped them to become one of the oldest living species on the planet today. Turtles were trawling the world's oceans over 100 million years ago when T-Rex was hunting dinosaurs on land. Sadly their shield is no match for the threats humanity has introduced into the oceans including plastic bags which they eat mistaking them for jellyfish (their favourite food); discarded fishing nets, which they get caught up in and drown and, of course, they are hunted for meat. But it's Global Warming that will likely determine their destiny. In the oceans, warmer waters are bleaching the reefs destroying the turtles' natural habitats, and on land, the hotter sands in which turtles lay their eggs are producing more female than male turtles. The heat of the sand in which the eggs gestate determines the sex of the hatchlings and, the warmer it gets, the fewer males born and therefore fewer eggs in future. People, the seas and the lands all seem totally aligned against these gorgeous little creatures who've been around forever.
