A rhinoceros , from Greek rhinokerōs 'nose-horned', from rhis 'nose', and keras 'horn'), generally curtailed to rhino, is an individual from any of the five surviving types of odd-toed ungulates in the family Rhinocerotidae, just as any of the various wiped out species in that. Two of the surviving species are local to Africa, and three to Southern Asia. The expression "rhinoceros" is regularly more comprehensively applied to now wiped out types of the superfamily Rhinocerotoidea.

Individuals from the rhinoceros family are the absolute biggest leftover megafauna, with all species ready to reach or surpass one ton in weight. They have a herbivorous eating regimen, little cerebrums (400–600 g) for warm blooded animals of their size, a couple of horns, and a thick (1.5–5 cm) defensive skin framed from layers of collagen situated in a cross section structure. They by and large eat verdant material, despite the fact that their capacity to mature food in their hindgut permits them to stay alive on more stringy plant matter when essential. In contrast to different perissodactyls, the two African types of rhinoceros need teeth at the front of their mouths, depending rather all the rage to cull food.

Rhinoceros are murdered by certain poachers for their horns, which are purchased and sold on the underground market, and utilized by certain societies for decorations or conventional medicine.East Asia, explicitly Vietnam, is the biggest market for rhino horns. By weight, rhino horns cost as much as gold on the underground market. A few societies accept the horns to have remedial properties and they are ground up and the residue consumed.The horns are made of keratin, the very kind of protein that makes up hair and fingernails.Both African species and the Sumatran rhinoceros have two horns, while the Indian and Javan rhinoceros have a solitary horn. The IUCN Red List recognizes the dark, Javan, and Sumatran rhinoceros as fundamentally imperiled.
