Two-horned rhinoceros or black rhino. Diceros bicornis. Illustration copied from Pennant.. "The Hottentots always kill these animals with a musquet shot, and the skin is capable of being transfixed with the lance or dart. The Hottentots usually hasten the death of the Rhinoceros by taking care to poison the weapon. The flesh is eatable, and tastes like coarse pork. Cups are made of its horns, and, of the hides, whips.". Handcoloured copperplate engraving from "The Naturalist's Pocket Magazine; or, Complete Cabinet of the Curiosities and Beauties of Nature" (1798~1802) published by Harrison, London.
