Absence of ear-conch. In Amboseli we saw in 1964 and 1965 a black rhino without earconch and without tail. Local people had different explanations, like lion attack or walking between two trees which were too close together. However, there is little doubt that this is a genetic minus-variant.

In Amboseli another abnormality in rhinoceros morphology has been noticed during the past few years. This is a horizontal, thin, long horn, which make their carriers, the females Gertie and Gladys, to the most photographed animals in this part of Africa.
