The text is for question number 8 to 10.
Animals are almost extinct if their number is getting smaller. It means more animals become rare. One of the rare animals is rhinoceros.
Rhinoceros is a large heavy mammal with a thick skin. The word rhinoceros is derived from Greek. Rhino means nose and Ceros means horns. Some rhinoceroses have two horns and others have one horn. These horns are not part of their body structure of the head. They don’t have any bony core. They are out growth of the skin.
Rhinoceroses are herbivorous. They eat plant. They live in grassy areas or in a jungle. Rhinoceroses spend most of their time in water. They usually live alone, except during the breeding season. One of these rare rhinoceros is the Java rhinoceros. The Java rhinoceros, the Sondaicus, is comparatively small and slender. It’s about 1,7 meters high. The males have a single horn up to 10 inches (25 feet) length, and the females are usually hornless.
Formerly the Java rhinoceroses live in Myanmar, Indochina, the Malay Peninsula, Java and Sumatra. They are now relatively scarce. People hunted them for their horns. We only find them in Ujung Kulon, West java now. If we don’t want the Java rhinoceroses to be extinct, we must protect them; we must preserve their habitat. The law prohibits hunters to hunt them.
