00:02 The rhinoceros is not just a large animal from Africa.

00:09 He is one of the most amazing animals

00:14 that nature has ever designed.

00:16 His large size is allied with enormous strength and fury.

00:21 In addition, he has both a protective weapon,

00:24 his skin up to five centimeters thick,

00:26 and an attack weapon, his horn.

00:29 (roaring)

00:32 A rhinoceros is also one of the heaviest animals

00:34 in the world.

00:35 White rhinos measuring 4.6 meters in size

00:39 and weighing 4.6 tons have been recorded.

00:41 At this large size,

00:45 predators may think of it as a big meal,

00:47 but can any animal catch it?

00:49 When the rhinoceros goes to drink water,

00:53 it can be attacked by the biggest predator

00:55 that exists in African rivers.

00:57 (crunching)

00:59 However, even large crocodiles pose no mortal danger

01:03 to an adult rhinoceros that is too strong

01:05 for the crocodile to be able to drag it into the river.

01:08 Baby rhinos would probably be easier prey

01:13 for the Nile crocodile, but it won't be that easy.

01:16 Rhino mothers take care of their young until a certain age.

01:22 And with that, even if the crocodile catches a baby,

01:25 the mother may attack the crocodile aggressively

01:28 to save her baby.

01:30 There aren't many documented attacks

01:31 by crocodiles on rhinos.

01:33 But that doesn't mean that in some rare situation,

01:38 the crocodile cannot taste the rhino's meat.

01:40 When a rhino is sick or old,

01:45 it can be attacked and die near the river's edge.

01:47 And crocodiles will feast on its delectable flesh.
