This is the Indian Rhino. Found only in the north east of the Indian subcontinent. CANONISED (aka Horolographer)

I must admit that is what I originally thought when I saw it but the zoo has labelled it as such. A quick look at the WWO says the same with Indian Rhino being in adverted commas. https://www.worldwildlife.org …/greater-one-horned-rhino Colin

I checked with Wikipedia and they listed it as Indian Rhino. I searched there for the Greater One Horn Rhino but the page does not exist in Wiki. Go figure. CANONISED (aka Horolographer)

I think it depends on your audience as to which is used. The International Rhino foundation list the further option of Nepalese as a name for the Indian/Greater One Horned Rhino so that's three options - two area related and the other referring to the scientific name "unicornis". Colin

The International Rhino foundation list the further option of Nepalese as a name for the Indian/Greater One Horned Rhino so that's three options - two area related and the other referring to the scientific name "unicornis". The Javan Rhino is shown on the WWO site as the "Lesser One Horned Rhino" so that's the counter to the "Greater" moniker. So armed with "Indian"/"Nepalese"/"Greater One Horn" vrs "Javan"/"(Asian)Lesser One Horned", one should be well equipped to know which one somebody else is talking about. All I know after all this merry googling is that I don't want any of them deciding to sit on me!
