According to Steinhardt, the Kaoko rhino is less prone to attack than the East African rhino. It would usually be happy just to scare away its enemy. When it loses the smell, it continues to run. Strangely, the Kaoko rhino would attack with raised horns, after it has lowered its head twice before the attack deep to the ground.
