Description

A quick illustration, representing a rhino found in Miocene Tibet, Plesiaceratherium sp. Plesiaceratherium was a very common rhinocerotid in Eurasia. I have represented it here with hair since that in the Early Miocene when this animal lived, the Tibet had enough elevation to have a temperate climate.
