Lemurian Rhinoceros

Lemurian rhinoceros (Rusingaceros leakeyi), also known as the Lemurian black rhinoceros, is a species of rhinoceros native to Lemurian tropical savannas, humid grasslands, forests, swamps, mangroves, and jungles. They resemble very much like the mainland African black rhinoceroses (all of which are endangered), but with a slightly more primitive teeth structure, so it feeds slightly differently from mainland black rhinoceroses. Just like mainland black rhinoceroses, however, they are completely herbivorous and mainly feed on leaves, shrubs, fruits, and nuts. The conservation status of Lemurian black rhinos is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and their wide natural range.
