Endangered: The Javan Rhino Story by Dr Steve Wilson is a compelling blend of memoir, wildlife science and conservation adventure. Spanning a six-year PhD journey through the dense jungles of Java, this book reveals the rarely seen world of one of Earth’s most elusive animals, the Javan rhino. With warmth and curiosity, Dr Wilson shares discoveries about their communication, social and wallowing behaviours, and the practical steps he uncovered to expand their shrinking habitat and food sources. But this is not just a research log. It is an engaging and personal narrative fi lled with stories of local wildlife, unexpected encounters, community connections and collaborations with national park staff and rhino protection teams. Through humour, honesty and scientifi c insight, Dr Wilson brings to life the urgency of saving this endangered species while inviting readers into the heart of conservation. Both informative and entertaining, this is a unique window into a world few ever get to see.
