Cover photo description:
The white rhinoceros is a mammal of the genus White Rhinoceros in the family Rhinoceros of the order Chariotiformes. The body is round and robust, with thick and smooth skin, and the surface of the body is approximately gray The head is particularly long, with degenerated incisors and canine teeth, and the developed 7 pairs of cheek teeth have a very thick calcareous layer There are two horns, one large and one small, one front and one back. The horns are not bone like, but derivatives of epithelial tissue, formed by the accumulation of keratin fibers The shoulder is formed by well-developed spinal spines that form a raised shoulder peak, connecting the ligaments to support the head The limbs are sturdy and powerful, with three toes in both the front and rear limbs The upper lip is flat and wide, forming a square shape, hence it is known as the broad snouted rhinoceros and the square snouted rhinoceros Males weigh more than females.
