A rhinoceros /raɪˈnɒsərəs/, from Greek rhinokeros, meaning `nose-horned`, from rhinos, meaning `nose`, and kerato/keras, meaning `horn`, commonly abbreviated to `rhino`, is one of any five extant species of odd-toed ungulates in the family Rhinocerotidae, as well as any of the numerous extinct species. Two of the extant species are native to Africa and three to Southern Asia. The term `rhinoceros` is often more broadly applied to now extinct relatives of the superfamily Rhinocerotoidea.
