Southern

white

rhinos

（犀牛）

mainly

live

in

Africa.

They

are

very

large

in

size,

about

4

meters

long,

1.75

meters

high,

and

over

two

tons

in

weight.

There

are

two

horns

（角）

on

the

nose.

The

front

horn

is

over

half

a

meter

long,

while

the

other

one

is

smaller.

Southern

white

rhinos

are

not

really

white.

They

are

grey

in

color.

“White”

may

come

from

the

Afrikaans

word

for

“wide”.

It

has

some

connection

with

their

wide

mouths.

Southern

white

rhinos

live

on

grass,

leaves,

fruit

and

so

on.

They

have

very

poor

eyesight.

However,

they

have

good

hearing

and

an

excellent

sense

of

smell.

Their

skin

is

nearly

5cm

thick

but

is

very

sensitive.

During

the

day,

they

try

to

find

a

cool

place

to

avoid

sunburn.

Southern

white

rhinos

lie

in

mud

（泥浆）

when

they

can,

as

it

sticks

to

their

skin

and

protects

them

from

the

bright

African

sun.

Some

humans

kill

rhinos

for

their

horns.

They

sell

horns

to

those

who

believe

horns

have

magic

powers

or

can

treat

sickness.

It

puts

southern

white

rhinos

in

danger.

Now

many

actions

are

taken

to

protect

southern

white

rhinos.

The

international

trade

in

rhino

horn

has

been

stopped

in

the

world.

Besides,

many

protected

have

been

built,

especially

in

Up
