Remembering Marcellus Adi Riyanto: The Indonesian vet and conservationist who lived for the Sumatran rhino

The Sumatran Rhino Rescue team lost a great leader with the tragic passing of Marcellus Adi Riyanto. We consider ourselves incredibly lucky to have witnessed the impact that Marcel had on the people, places, and wildlife he was so devoted to in his work and endeavor to carry his spirit with us as we pursue the vision that he was so committed to.

Mongabay recently highlighted Marcellus’ dedicated work and we encourage you to take a moment to learn more about his outstanding contributions to protecting the Sumatran rhino.
