Nargis Fakhri with Sudan, the sole surviving male nothern-white rhino on the planet, at the Ol-Pejeta sanctuary in Kenya.

The actress visited Sudan and his two-female companions, Suin and Fatu, at the sanctuary which houses three of the only four remaining members of the species.

Nargis was part of a campaign to create awareness of the plight of the nothern-white rhinos, a sub-species, whose future now depends solely on artificial methods of reproduction.
