Description: |
Ice Age is not only associated with Woolly Mammoths and Sabertooth cats. The other mighty beast living all over Europe and Asia was Woolly Rhinoceros. They appeared about 1 million years ago and only 10,000 years ago become extinct. They were bigger than modern rhinos and virtually had no enemies except humans. |
