There are five extant species of rhinoceros, commonly classified into two groups: the African rhinos and the Asian rhinos. African rhinos include the black rhino and the white rhino, which are primarily distinguished by their size and mouths; the white rhino has a broad, square-shaped mouth suited for grazing, while the black rhino has a pointed, hooked-shaped mouth for browsing. The Asian rhinos consist of the Indian rhino, the
Javan rhino, and the Sumatran rhino, which differ in size, skin texture, and habitat preferences. Each species faces unique conservation challenges due to poaching and habitat loss.
