Home ranges vary in size, depending on resources and region, from .75-8 sq. Rhinos spend almost their entire lives within their home range. Groups of as many as 14 rhinos have been observed but smaller ones are more common. Dominant bulls are usually solitary and will confront any invading bull. Fights are rare and confrontations usually consist of slight horn butting, false charges, and other displays.
Bulls tolerate females and sub-adult males in their territory.
They mark their territories by spreading dung, spraying urine, dragging their feet, and damaging plants with their horns. White rhinos are rather unagressive towards other species. This behavior has made them a very easy animal to poach. Habitat Primarily open woodland with nearby open grassland, thick brush, and water. White rhinos prefer flat lands and can occasionally be found in swampy regions.
