Black rhino

The black rhinoceros, often called the black rhino, is a large, thick-skinned mammal native to Africa. Despite its name, its actual color varies from gray to brown. It has a pointed upper lip used for browsing leaves and shrubs, distinguishing it from the white rhino. Black rhinos are herbivores, playing a vital role in their ecosystem. They are critically endangered due to poaching for their horns and habitat loss, making conservation efforts essential. These animals are solitary and territorial, with a lifespan of around 35-50 years in the wild.
