Animals do not consciously adapt to their environment. It is a matter of evolution and 'survival of the fittest'.

Adaptations come about through mutant variations, most of which are detrimental. However, occasionally a mutation will be beneficial and allow the creature to survive more easily. Such a creature has more chances to procreate and pass on the successful mutation or gene.

What is harming the rhino habitat?

Rhinos need lots of space to thrive in their habitat. But they can survive in many places as long as they have food and water. they also need shelter to stay out of the sun in the heat of the day because they can get sunburned. When we destroy their habitat, it forces the rhinos to overlap their habitat with other rhinos. This can lead to conflicts with the rhinos. They can also become more aggressive when people move near their area. In addition to sunburn, the lack of trees (caused by humans) can make the rhinos dehydrated and sick.
