A cattle egret alights on a rhinoceros.
According to the December 1997 National Geographic article “Making Room for Wild Tigers,” “rhino horn is used in traditional Chinese medicine, and a single horn can bring more than [U.S.] $8,000 on the black market. ... Between 1989 and 1993, 266 rhinos in India were butchered for their horns.”

| The Indian Rhinoceros or the Great One-horned Rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis) is a large mammal found in Nepal and in Assam, India. It is confined to the tall grasslands and forests in the foothills of the Himalayas. The Indian Rhinoceros can run as fast as 55 km/h for short periods of time and is also an excellent swimmer. It has an excellent sense of hearing and smell but relatively poor eyesight. |
