Javan rhinoceros. skin#

This rhino species is very close relative to the greater one-horned rhinoceros but has a significantly smaller head and less perceivable skin folds.

This one-horned rhinoceros has a dark gray-colored loose skin with multiple folds, making it appear much like armor. The Javan rhino is one of the greater one-horned rhino species. The population of these rhinos is now limited to the national park in Java, Indonesia. The Javan rhino population once was the most widely spread amongst the Asian rhino but now is on the verge of extinction due to poaching.

Javan rhinos with the scientific name Rhinoceros sondaicus are the rarest of the five rhino species.
