RIVERINE RABBIT WORKING GROUP 

The Riverine Rabbit Working Group (EWT-RRWG) was established in August 2003 and is delegating and coordinating all conservation efforts on the critically endangered Riverine Rabbit and its habitat. The group is so far the only non-governmental conservation institution based and operating in the Great and Klein Karoo region (Nama and Succulent Karoo) and understands its critical role in future conservation, environmental education, in building capacity and leaders in previously disadvantaged local communities of the Karoo. Due to the remote location of the Karoo it is a challenge for the group to engage future multidisciplinary research and to link with existing conservation, environmental education and research initiatives. The Riverine Rabbit (Bunolagus monticularis) is endemic to the semi-arid Great Karoo and parts of the Klein Karoo of South Africa and one of the most endangered terrestrial mammals of Southern Africa . With an estimation of a few hundred animals being left in the wild today the species is facing an extremely high risk of extinction!
