Skeleton of the woolly rhinoceros (Coelodonta antiquitatis) in Etten, Holland. It is the first specimen of this extinct species found in Holland. The skeleton has been reconstructed from loose finds on the bottom of the North Sea. The horn is reconstructed in fibre-glass. Other species have also been found in the same sand-quarries in the sea, like the mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius) and wisent (Bison priscus).
