WINDHOEK, Namibia — Six species of rare animals, including eight black rhinos, will be sold in an auction July 25 to boost conservation efforts in Namibia, wildlife officials said Wednesday.

Teams were deployed this week in the Etosha National Park — the country’s most famous game sanctuary — to capture sable antelope and black-faced impalas. The rhinos and buffalo were captured last month.

Officials said more than $1 million was raised in a similar auction in 2006.
