Sumatran Rhinoceros

• anatomíaIt is the smallest living rhinoceros and the only one with two horns and a notable coat of hair, which ties it more closely to the extinct woolly rhinos than to its living relatives.
• It is the closest living relative of the Pleistocene woolly rhinoceros, and keeps a reddish coat that no other living rhino has.
• Its main threat is no longer poaching but isolation: the few animals left are so scattered that females go years without meeting a male, and the lack of pregnancies gives them uterine cysts and tumours that eventually leave them infertile.
