The  Rhino is a vegetarian that eats more than 200 species of plants. It is unpredictable and nearly as likely to charge as to run away when disturbed. When charging, it puffs and snorts like a steam engine, running with its tail erect at speeds of up to 30 miles per hour. Some rhinos travel 5 to 15 miles every day to drink; in hot weather, they like to lie in mud wallows. All of the world's five species of rhinos are endangered species.

Today there are 5 species and 11 subspecies of rhinos surviving on earth. Two species (Black & White) occur in Africa. Three species (Indian, Javan, and Sumatran) occur in Asia. Thousands and especially millions of years ago, rhinos were more diverse (many species), widespread and abundant. Rhinos occurred in North America and Europe as well as in Africa and Asia. The surviving rhinos are precious representatives of the glorious heritage and history of the rhino family on our planet.
