Rhinos are not as short-sighted as their reputation
Rhinos are famous for terrible eyesight. Measured properly, a black rhino's vision is about one-tenth as sharp as a human's, roughly the same as a rabbit's, and good enough to pick out a person 200 metres away.

By 1900 fewer than 200 greater one-horned rhinos and perhaps 50 to 100 southern white rhinos were left alive. Today there are around 4,000 of the first and nearly 16,000 of the second.
