Iranotherium (SciiFii)

The desert unicorn rhinoceros (Iranotherium asiaticus) is a species of large elasmothere rhinoceros, as big as a modern white rhino, that originally lived in the Middle East and Central Asia during the Miocene and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced the modern grasslands, scrublands, and deserts of the Middle East and Central Asia to help boost biodiversity. The male desert unicorn rhinoceroses are larger than the females and have equally larger horns for defense against predators and to challenge other males for territories or just to win a right to mate with females. It is a solitary herbivore that mainly feeds on grass, leaves, shrubs, and a wide range of drought-tolerant desert plants. Just like camels, the desert unicorn rhinoceroses can live for about a week without water, and like them, they are able to navigate and locate where the nearest oasis and other water sources are located in. The conservation status of the desert unicorn rhinoceros is Vulnerable due to historic poaching, however, the conservationists have worked so hard on protecting desert unicorn rhinoceroses from going extinct again, and because of this, the population trend of desert unicorn rhinoceroses is increasing.
