Indian Rhinoceros Tote Bag

The Indian Rhinoceros (Rhinoceros indicus), from Charles d'Orbigny's Dictionnaire universel d'histoire naturelle, atlas of mammals, plate 9 D (1849). Hand-colored nineteenth-century natural-history engraving depicting the greater one-horned rhinoceros.

The Indian rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis) inhabits the grasslands, wetlands, and riverine forests of northern India and Nepal. Its thick, folded skin forms large armor-like plates, while the raised bumps covering its shoulders and hindquarters give it a distinctive textured appearance. Unlike African rhinoceroses, it possesses a single horn, made of keratin, the same protein found in human hair and fingernails. Although it can weigh more than two metric tons, the Indian rhinoceros is a capable swimmer and frequently spends time submerged in rivers and muddy pools to cool its body and protect its skin from insects.
