  Woolly Rhino

• Scientific name-Coelodonta antiquitatis
• Where it lived-The Woolly Rhino is now extinct but it once lived in grassy areas.
• What it ate-The Woolly Rhino is thought to use its long horns to scrape the ground looking for grass to eat.
• They lived 500,000-10,000 years ago.
• Rhinos are thought to have evolved from a group of tapirs in the late Eocene, and became diverse plains-living animals.
• Some of them also live in forests, as do a couple of modern rhino species today.
• It is also related to todays endangered Sumatran Rhino that also has reddish hair.
• The horns of the woolly rhino were often found in Russia during the 19th century, but because they are so strange-looking, many people believed that they were the claws of giant birds!
