Rhinos are not good with Authority Figures. We are too willful to assume Somebody Else knows more about what’s what than We do. They aren’t dealing with our issues, so how should They know how to behave, better than We do?

Other critters like other systems, like packs or hives or herds. We respect any critters that make a go of it, however they manage. But with Rhinos, each critter is so distinguished that there just is no room for a crown or a cigar or whatever. We each get some turf, and attend to it.

Historically speaking, We have tried I-tell-You-what-to-do Arrangements. But it has never lasted more than an hour or two. We just get into a rumpus, and when the dust settles, We each go on about our own business. Nobody is any the wiser for the experience, but We each feel better for having put our foot down.

What We put it down on is anyone’s guess.
