Comparing rhino breeds

Because black rhinos are grazers, they have smaller, hook-shaped lips that allow them to grasp prickly shrubs

and trees.

White rhinos have bigger heads and longer necks than the blacks; the white rhinos are also slightly taller with longer tails. The white rhino is built slightly differently, with their hips lower than their shoulders, resulting in a sloped shape to their back in contrast to the blacks that have dipped backs.
