Synopsis
This new addition to the popular Do You Know series tells young naturalists everything they ever wanted to know about rhinos.
Do you know?
The record for the longest horn is held by a white rhinoceros. Its horn was 1.66 metres (5.2 feet) long.
A broken horn will regrow in two to three years. Just like our nails and hair, a rhinoceros horn is made of keratin.
The rhinoceros is an endangered species. There are only about 8,000 individuals left in the world.

Samuel Parent, pen name Sampar, was born in 1973 in Victoriaville, Quebec. He is a self-taught illustrator and cartoonist.

He has also been a Mr. Christie's Book Award 2002 finalist Awards, a favourite books Youth Communication-Jeunesse finalist, and a Hackmatack Award finalist in 2003 and 2004. Sampar's illustrations fascinate and capture the imagination of young and old alike.
