Sumatranski nosorog je kritično ogrožena vrsta - na svetu naj bi po podatkih organizacij za varstvo narave ostalo le še nekaj deset primerkov.

To je peti mladič te vrste nosoroga, ki se je skotil v zadnjih letih v okviru programa vzreje v poldivjini v tem parku, je povedala indonezijska ministrica za okolje in gozdarstvo Siti Nurbaya Bakar. "Gre za drugo skotitev mladiča sumatranskega nosoroga v letošnjem letu. To še dodatno krepi zavezanost vlade za ohranjanje nosorogov v Indoneziji," je dejala.
Mednarodna zveza za varstvo narave (IUCN) uvršča sumatranskega nosoroga, ki je najmanjši med vsemi vrstami nosorogov, med kritično ogrožene. Svetovni sklad za naravo (WWF) in IUCN ocenjujeta, da populacija sumatranskih nosorogov na indonezijskih otokih Sumatra in Borneo obsega manj kot 80 primerkov.

Na rob izumrtja jih je pripeljalo več groženj, med drugim lov zaradi nezakonitega trgovanja z rogovi in podnebne spremembe. Indonezija si poleg tega prizadeva rešiti še eno kritično ogroženo vrsto, javanskega nosoroga, ki jih danes prav tako živi manj kot 80.
