Javan rhinoceros — size comparison — facts and sources
The Javan rhinoceros inhabits lowland rainforests of western Java. Its almost hairless skin has shallower folds than that of the larger Indian rhinoceros. It uses dense thickets and muddy clearings.
It eats leaves, young shoots, fruit and twigs. Secretive and usually solitary, it has such a restricted range that even small losses of suitable forest can affect the surviving population’s living conditions.
