Description
The Woolly Rhinoceros is a large perissodactyl from the dry steppes of Northern Eurasia that died out at the end of the Pleistocene.
Due to the discovery of a mummified specimen and many cave drawings several details about the Woolly Rhino's life appearance are known.
It is likely that the woolly rhino possessed a large hump, as hinted from the raised neural spines on the torso vertebrae as well as multiple cave drawings.
It's likely that a Population of rhinos from western Europe had a black belt pattern around their midsection as indicated by cave art from that area. Cave art from other regions show more plain rhinos.
I don't think the hump was as exaggerated as those in the cave drawings. To Clarify why: The humps in the cave drawings are more extreme than any mammal today (at least that I know of). On a more legitimate note, those cave paintings ere likely drawn from memory which leaves them vulnerable to a phenomena similar to what
described in his videos on Moth-man and the Flat-woods monster: Imprinting and exaggeration of noticeable features.
Some things of note:
•The rhino's head is not bald, it is just the same color as it's but hair.
•The rhino is drawn from scratch and may not be 100% accurate in terms of proportions and scale. I however have tried to get it as close as I could possibily mae it.
•I should have done more research before making this.

This rhino was drawn from scratch!
I would like to thank

And a big thank you to
for providing references for Rhino muscle anatomy, (and for searching for pictures of rhino genitals) RIP Search History....

You made three typos, it should be "butt" instead of "but","possibly" instead of "possibily" and "make" instead of "mae"
