Ceratotherium simum

Also known as White Rhino, Square-lipped Rhinoceros, Square-lipped Rhino

White rhinoceroses are the largest of all five rhino species, spending up to half their day grazing on short grasses with their broad, square lips. Unlike their solitary relatives, these gentle giants are remarkably social, forming small groups called crashes that communicate through a complex vocabulary of grunts, snorts, and squeals. They rely heavily on mud wallows to cool their sensitive skin and protect themselves from biting insects.
