Status: Fossil extinct species of Rhinoceros. It lived on the northern steppes of Eurasia, whereas its relative the Giant Unicorn had a more southern range. It had a flat horn that enabled it to push aside snow in order to graze.
It was hunted by early humans, who probably caused its extinction.
A close relative still barely survives in South-East Asia, the Sumatran Rhinoceros Dicerorhinus sumatrensis.
