It has been predicted that the northern white rhinos would soon be declared extinct due to high levels of poaching in Garamba National park. As civil unrest hindered conservation efforts, plans were developed to transition the rhino to havens in Kenya but were not implemented — the Congolese argued that outsiders should not be allowed to take away their symbol. Only four individuals were recorded in an aerial survey of the park in 2005 but they were presumed dead due to the civil unrest in the area.
Garamba National Park is surrounded by three vast adjacent hunting grounds, constituting an ecosystem of a sufficiently extensive area (1,242,700 ha) to support large populations of large mammals with their local seasonal migration routes. The hunting grounds contribute towards the effective protection of the property against the threats from the surrounding zone.
