  1. Sightings of rhinos these days are very precious, lets hope that we can continue to see them if not in the wild, at least in reserves and not in bottles Posted 12 years ago

The white rhinoceros or square-lipped rhinoceros is the largest extant species of rhinoceros. It has a wide mouth used for grazing and is the most social of all rhino species. The white rhinoceros consists of two subspecies: the southern white rhinoceros, with an estimated 17,460 wild-living animals at the end of 2007, and the much rarer northern white rhinoceros.
