Original text on this topic:
London Zoo - male Jim Rhinoceros unicornis . He had a nicely shaped horn. Towards the end of his life [early 1900's], he was modelled by BRITAINS Limited for their series of model zoo animals. Thus, tiny sculptures of Jim can still be bought in toy shops all over Britain, over 90 years after his death.
