Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Black or Hook-lipped Rhinoceros (Diceros bicornis)
The triangular, prehensile process of the upper lip. responsible for the name "hook-lipped," helps this browser gather leaves and twigs. The anterior horn is roundish and usually longer than the posterior one, but both may vary considerably in form. In this ease the tiny third horn between the usual pair is abnormal. Both photographs from a bull shot by the late Mr. Richard Tjader at Solai, during the first of his three expeditions to British East Africa. The right hand picture is reproduced by courtesy of D. Appleton and Company from Mr. Tjader's book "The Big Game of Africa," (New York, 1910) |
