Southern Square-lipped Rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum simum)

You can tell it’s a Southern rhino because it’s going downhill.

Addax (Addax nasomaculatus)

In the wild, animals that destroy their environments tend to be nomads. Hooved animals like these will move as a herd so the land can recover. Elephants move through the forests knocking over trees, but it takes long enough that more trees grow back.

Humans just run out of space and then start being meaner to one another.

Ring-tailed Lemur (Lemur catta)

I’ve always wondered how herbivores decide which specific blades of grass they want to eat.

This lemur was no help at all because they are opportunistic omnivores.
