[edit] picture??

will add very soon..... waiting for my photos to be scanned....

Thanks, there is a picture on the article linked here in the time being [1]

[edit] Well

Im not sure if any one knows this, but while reading this I not fine its role in the food chain, if some one could point out it to me i would be it would be much appreciated.

It plays the same role as other ungulates in its habitat.

[edit] Inaccurancy

"With size equal that of the white rhino in Africa, it is the second largest land animal, after the elephants."

There are three species of elephants, all bigger, so the Indian rhino has a shared fourth place, together with the white rhino. JAL 82.92.15.150 13:54, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] what now

"The rhino once inhabited areas from Pakistan to Burmese and may have even roamed Myanmar and China. "

Burmese is supposed to be Myanmar but then it has even roamed Myanmar so this means Burma and not Burmese?

[edit] Where is rhino with gaur

This is a sentence from the gaur article: "A fight has been reported between a male Indian rhino and a bull gaur, reflecting the strength and courage of the gaur." Can anyone tell me where in the world do rhino and gaur share habitat? As far as I know, rhino only lives in Kaziranga, india, where the gaur is absent. Answer: I heard that a gaur once injured an Indian rhino in the San Diego Wild Animal Park. I believe that the Indian rhino was badly hurt. Is the Indian rhino in the picture at the Toronto Zoo Patrick, the first Indian rhino born alive in the Western Hemisphere, in 1974 at the Washington D.C. Zoo? One was born dead in the Milwaukee County Zoo I think in 1967.

[edit] Error?

"it is the fourth-largest land animal, after the three elephant species" and where are the giraffes in this story? Unless the article meant the fourth-heaviest.

Can anyone answer me?

[edit] Rhino with gaur

Indian rhinos and gaur both live in Royal Chitwan in Nepal, to answer the above question.

[edit] 105 miles per hour?

Isn't that figure a bit ludicrous? Also, shouldn't it be in kilometers per hour? In any case, it should require a source. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.100.154.81 (talk) 11:32, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Good catch! The page was just temporarily vandalized it looks like. Ideally it should be in both kph and mph. I'll try to find a source at some point today! --JayHenry (talk) 14:43, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
