Le plus optimistic estimate presenta que exista no multe de 100 rhinocerotes del Java in salvage.[2][3]
Le Rhinocerote del Java ha rangiate de le isla de Indonesia, a India e China. Le specie es ora in periculo critic, con due populationes in salvage, e nulle in zoo. Ille es le plus rare mammal grande on terra.[4] Un population de 40–50 vive in Parco National Ujung Kulon super le isla de Java in Indonesia e un minor population, estimate in 2007 a 8, supervive in Parco National Cat Tien in Vietnam.
