2023 Cameroon 2000 Francs 2-oz Silver Expressions of Wildlife: Black Rhino Antiqued Coin

Get Up Close And Personal With Africa's Fearsome Black Rhino

Why do rhinos have folds in their skin and notoriously bad tempers? Well, according to British author Rudyard Kipling in his book Just So Stories, the reason is that years and years ago an African Bushman was robbed of his cake by an ill-mannered rhinoceros. In revenge, the Bushman waited until an extremely hot day compelled the rhino to shed his smooth-fitting skin to take a dip in a nearby river. The bushman rubbed cake crumbs into the skin and when the rhino emerged from the river to put his skin back on, he began itching and rolling around. In fact, he itched so much that he rubbed his skin into great wrinkled folds over his shoulders and legs. He scratched until he rubbed the buttons right off the skin and couldn't get it off again! That's why today, every rhinoceros has great folds in his skin and a very bad temper, all on account of the cake-crumbs inside his skin!
