Share your rhinoceros research and publications

We welcome contributions of information and copies of any work related to rhinoceroses. Whether you’re a publisher, author, or researcher, we encourage you to keep us informed about your publications. No contribution is too small – if rhinoceroses are mentioned, we’re interested.

If you possess items not yet listed in our Bibliography, including original photographs, prints, or books, we would be delighted to hear from you. Your contributions help us maintain the most comprehensive rhinoceros knowledge base in the world.

Photography collection initiative

The Rhino Resource Centre is expanding our digital galleries to create a comprehensive visual record of rhinoceroses worldwide. Our ambitious goal is to document every rhinoceros in captivity, both past and present, whilst also showcasing exceptional photographs of all rhino species in their natural habitats.

  • Zoos and wildlife parks

Rhino horns are not what they seem

Unlike elephant tusks or cattle horns, rhino horns are made entirely of keratin — the same protein found in human hair and fingernails. They're essentially compressed hair that grows continuously throughout the rhino's life.
