What is Elasmotherium?

Elasmotherium or "thin album" Beast ", also known as a giant unicorn, is a genus of a giant rhino, who was walking through the Eurasian steppes for millions of years, about 5 million years ago only about 1.6 million years ago (but one report suggests that within the 10th century). Elasmotherium had an average height of 2 meters (6.6 ft), a length of 6 meters (20 ft), with one 2 meter (6.6 ft) long corner in the middle of the forehead. The corner had a wide base and bombarded at the tip. With a corner larger than an adult human man, he could kill most future predators. Like a modern rhinoceros, it was a herbivore, mostly consuming grass. The charging sample could be able to generate more kinetic energy than any ground mammal that has ever lived. Like modern rhinos, it could now be charged at 25 km/h (40 km/h) and probably was a good swimmer. Its size was similar to the size of the largest living rhino today, an Indian rhino. Its corner is about twice the oneK for a long time as the longest among the living rhinos. Since all known specimens are fossilized, however, existing Elasmotherium corners are made of stone, not keratin.

It was designed Nordisk Familijebok (Swedish encyclopedia published at the end of the 19th and early 20th century) and scientific writer Will Ley that Elasmotherium might have existed enough to remember the cultural consciousness of Eevek living in contemporary Russia and China. In some of their legends, it contains "a huge black bull with a corner at the head". A possible reference to Elasmotherium In historical times, he also appears in Ibn Fadlan's accounts, medieval Arab Muslimukter traveled as Ambassador from Baghdad to the settlements of Volga Bulgars in today's Russia. In her account, the animal tend to throw men from their horses and spears in the air with the corner while their mountain left alone. It was reportedly hunted by natives who on it withThree poisonous arrows from the trees.
