Allow me to share a few facts about the rhino:
Black Rhino is also known as the hook-lipped rhino. Their lip is very helpful as they are browsers, eating bushes, shrubs, and lower branches of trees. Their scientific name is Diceros Bicomis. It is found in Botswana, Kenya, Malawi, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. The Black Rhino is Critically Endangered with only 5,055 left today.
The White Rhino is also known as the square-lipped rhino. The white rhino is a grazer, eating grasses and other ground vegetation. Their scientific name is Ceratotherium Simum. They are found in South Africa, Botswana, Kenya, Namibia, Swaziland, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Uganda, At one time the white rhino was critically endangered with only 50 left in the wild. Due to conservation efforts, the white rhino is now considered to be "near threatened" with 20,000 in the wild today.
The Sumatran Rhino is also known as the hairy rhino. The scientific name for the Sumatran Rhino is Dicerorhinus Sumatrensis. This species of the rhino is found in Sumatra (Indonesia) and Sabah (Malaysia). Unfortunately, is Critically Endangered with fewer than 100 left in the wild. The Sumatran Rhino species is older than any other mammal on earth. It would be a real shame to lose this species.
