About this deal

Fossils of R. unicornis appear in the Middle Pleistocene. In the Pleistocene, the genus Rhinoceros ranged throughout South and Southeast Asia, with specimens located on Sri Lanka. Into the Holocene, some rhinoceros lived as far west as Gujarat and Pakistan until as recently as 3,200 years ago. [14] a b Medhi, A. & Saha, A. K. (2014).

Proceedings of IGU Rohtak Conference. Vol.1, Part II. Springer Japan. pp.125–138. Trapping in a pit depends largely on the terrain and availability of grass to cover it; pits are dug out in such a way that a fallen animal has little room to manoeuvre with its head slightly above the pit, so that it is easy to saw off the horn.

Females choose males to mate with by showing up to their territory when they are ready to mate. The bull approaches the female with a series of “hic-pants,” which is a breathy inhalation followed by a hiccup. He may rest his chin on her rump to test whether she will tolerate a mating, too.

The generic name Rhinoceros is a combination of the ancient Greek words ῥίς ( ris) meaning "nose" and κέρας ( keras) meaning "horn of an animal". [6] [7] The Latin word ūnicornis means "one-horned".

Sport hunting became common in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and was the main cause for the decline of Indian rhinoceros populations. Indian rhinos were hunted relentlessly and persistently. Reports from the mid-19th century claim that some British military officers shot more than 200 rhinos in Assam alone. By 1908, the population in Kaziranga National Park had decreased to around 12 individuals. [14] In the early 1900s, the Indian rhinoceros was almost extinct. At present, poaching for the use of horn in traditional Chinese Medicine is one of the main threats that has led to decreases in several important populations. [1] Poaching for the Indian rhino's horn became the single most important reason for the decline of the Indian rhinoceros after conservation measures were put in place from the beginning of the 20th century, when legal hunting ended. From 1980 to 1993, 692 rhinos were poached in India, including 41 rhinos in India's Laokhowa Wildlife Sanctuary in 1983, almost the entire population of the sanctuary. [34] By the mid-1990s, the Indian rhinoceros had been extirpated in this sanctuary. [4] Between 2000 and 2006, more than 150 rhinos were poached in Assam. [5] Almost 100 rhinos were poached in India between 2013 and 2018. [35] George V and Chandra Shumsher JBR with a slain rhino during a hunt (December 1911) Rhinos are herbivores and spend the morning, late afternoon and nighttime eating, while the spend the hottest part of the day resting. The type of vegetation they eat varies by species, which is because their snouts are different shapes to accommodate different types of food.

A rhinoceros ( / r aɪ ˈ n ɒ s ər ə s/; from Ancient Greek ῥῑνόκερως ( rhīnókerōs)'nose-horned'; from ῥῑ́ς ( rhī́s)'nose',and κέρας ( kéras)'horn'; [1] pl.: rhinoceros or rhinoceroses), commonly abbreviated to rhino, is a member of any of the five extant species (or numerous extinct species) of odd-toed ungulates in the family Rhinocerotidae; it can also refer to a member of any of the extinct species of the superfamily Rhinocerotoidea. Two of the extant species are native to Africa, and three to South and Southeast Asia. Partridge, E. (1983). "ūnicornis". Origins: a Short Etymological Dictionary of Modern English.

The Indian rhino has a gray-brown hide with skin folds that give it an armor-plated appearance, which looks similar to the Javan rhino, although the Javan rhino has a much smaller head, and has less apparent skin folds. The greater one horned rhino also has a small, prehensile lip, different from other rhino species. The Sumatran rhino, despite being the smallest rhino, is actually the hairiest of the species, and is reddish-brown in color.
