Rhinoceros
Rhinoceroses, often abbreviated as rhinos, were large, heavy-built mammals of Earth that had thick folded skin and a pair of horns on their nose. Rhinoceroses were considered an endangered species by the 20th century, with people in 1966 believing they would be completely extinct by the year 2000.
