The white rhinoceros is the largest living land animal after the elephant. They have massive bodies, short necks, and broad chests. A noticeable muscular hump on the back of the neck supports the large head. They have two medial horns on the snout, one behind the other. The name white rhino is derived from the Afrikaan word "wyt" meaning wide, referring to the broad square upper-lipped mouth that distinguishes it from the black rhino. South Africa remains the stronghold for this southern species. They occupy grassland and savanna habitats as well as brushy woodland interspersed with grassy openings. Located here at the Toronto Zoo
