Answer 3

There are many differences between rhinos and elephants, looks included. A rhinoceros has a large horn on its nose and lacks a long extension of its nose being a trunk, which is what an elephant has. A rhino's horn is made of keratin, which is the same substance that makes up your finger or toenails. An elephant has tusks jutting from its mouth, which are merely extensions of their teeth, kind of like canines or fangs in a dog or lion, except they're not used in the same way that a dog or lion uses them.

Elephants are also taller and bigger than a rhino. They have much larger ears than rhinos do, long dextrous noses they use as a tool to get food and feed themselves, bathe themselves, communicate with other elephants, and to hold things with. Elephants need this trunk because they cannot lower their head to graze grass like a rhino can.
