Reginald the Rhino fidget-3.5 inch

Fidgeting with a Rhino makes you you confident and observant, Reginald says so!

Rhinos, or rhinoceroses, are large, thick-skinned herbivores known for their distinctive horns on their noses. There are five species of rhinos: two in Africa (the black rhino and the white rhino) and three in Asia (the Indian rhino, the Javan rhino, and the Sumatran rhino).

**Key Characteristics:**

- **Size:** Rhinos are among the largest land animals, with the white rhino being the biggest, weighing up to 2,300 kg (5,070 lbs).

- **Horns:** Rhinos are famous for their horns, which are made of keratin, the same protein that makes up human hair and nails. The number and size of the horns vary by species.

- **Skin:** Their thick skin, which can be up to 5 cm (2 inches) thick, is not armor-like but sensitive and prone to sunburn and insect bites.

- **Diet:** They are herbivores, primarily eating grass, leaves, and fruits. Their eating habits differ based on species and habitat.

**Conservation Status:**

Most rhino species are endangered due to poaching and habitat loss. Their horns are highly valued on the black market, particularly in parts of Asia, leading to a drastic decline in populations. Conservation efforts are ongoing, with a focus on anti-poaching measures and habitat restoration.

**Behavior and Habitat:**

- **African Rhinos:** White rhinos prefer grasslands and savannas, while black rhinos tend to inhabit bushlands and forests.

- **Asian Rhinos:** Indian rhinos live in the grasslands and floodplains, Javan rhinos in dense forests, and Sumatran rhinos in tropical rainforests.

Despite their size and tough appearance, rhinos have poor eyesight but a strong sense of smell and hearing. They are generally solitary animals, except for mothers with calves or during mating.
