Here We are, the Greater One-horn Rhinos, or, Indian Rhinos, all the same thing. We are not fussy. Many of Us live in south-central Nepal, hence the title. It’s a sanctuary for wildlife, among whom We are happy to be numbered. Still.
Beside our sumptuous bulk, say 5000 pounds, give or take a thousand, We happen to have the most breathtaking folds and bumples all over Us. Some people think it makes us indestructible, but that is not so; We are permeable. The single horn is also definitive; you are unlikely to see a Javan Rhino, the only other one horned species today.
One horn, that’s Us. And huggable. We are an affectionate crowd.
We live where they make Monsoons, which are a Big Experience. We like them. Good and Wet.

“…sumptuous bulk…”–Delicious wordsmithing.
