Original text on this topic:
The white rhinoceros, from the evidence of skeletal remains and their depiction in rock art, at one time occurred from the coastal areas of Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia, through the Sahara and East Africa to the Republic of South Africa. In the wild the northern white rhinoceros is now only found in the Garamba National Park in Zaire, while the southern white rhinoceros is now spread throughout much of the Southern African Subregion.
