Young in Victoria Docks, London
In appearance the young Rhinoceros (see Plate XI.) reminds one of a young Ass, viewing its long legs and general mode of moving its large long head and meagre looking body. The front horn on the nose is about 3/4 of an inch high; the posterior horn is not developed; but a smooth spot indicates its position.
