Original text on this topic:
The colour is certainly a lighter shade of slate-grey than that of the Black Rhino, though it cannot by the widest stretch of imagination be called white! Nevertheless, the smooth texture of the skin does produce a sort of 'white shiny' appearance when noticed at a distance in brilliant sunlight.
