SMR 27 Jan 2010 This looks like a white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum) pictured at Chester Zoo in 1985, found in a set of random, aged negatives.

taun 27 Jan 2010 I would also say if was a white rhino, due the bigger neck to hold the much larger head up.
Pygathrix 27 Jan 2010 Yes it is a white rhino. They were kept at the end of the old rhino house nearest the elephants (where the warthogs are now).
