Both types of rhinos, both white and black, are now gray. Not differ much for the color, but they can be differentiated by the shape of the lip. The black rhino has a pointed upper lip, while the white rhino is more square. The reason for this difference is due to the diet they carry. Black rhinos use their lips to pluck from the trees and shrubs for food, while the white ground of grass fed, so you just have to duck down.

- Black rhinoceros, black rhinos have a fabulous sense of hearing and smell. These rhinos develop two horns, the first more prominent than the rhinoceros.

- White Rhino: Live in African regions where the grass is plentiful, and are able to meet up to twelve individuals. The females only have a baby, living with her until three years. For sun protection, usually lying in the shade, and if they find a hole with water and land, will not hesitate to dive and swim in it. The mud of the pond, besides being a natural protector against the bugs, it also protects them from the sun. The horns are the same as the black rhino and have the same function.

Only about 11000 wild white rhinos live wild in nature, and many organizations are working to protect this animal as desired.
