Description Dicerorhinus sumatrensis, also known as Sumatran Rhinoceros or Sumatran Hairy Rhinoceros, is a species of rhino that lived in southeast asia. In historic times, it lived all the way from china to borneo. Now it's range is just restricted to sumatra and borneo (with the condition in borneo is quite severe as tam, the rhino there, died without descendants). genetic analysis proved that it is the closest living relative of the woolly rhino (Coelodonta) and Merck's rhino (Stephanorhinus). The genus where the sumatran rhino belonged to had historic range from europe to japan during pliocene epoch. 

drawn for world rhino day, but as a college student that isn't easy since you had exam to face. So it's kinda late
