Herr Rhino is a male rhinoceros.

When Simba fled to the jungle, with the hyenas in hot pursuit, he begged Herr Rhino for help. The rhinoceros relented and chased off the hyenas, thus saving Simba's life. Years later, Herr Rhino assisted Simba in taking back the Pride Lands from the usurper Scar.

Herr Rhino gathers with Simba's allies before the battle with Scar.

After Banagi, Baasho, and Scar murdered Mufasa, Baasho pursued Simba as he fled from his homeland. Simba ran into Herr Rhino, whom he mistook for a rock. Simba begged the rhinoceros for help, and he agreed. He then charged at the hyenas and chased them off.

Soon after Simba left Timon and Tesma's colony, he asked Herr Rhino to assist him in taking back the Pride Lands. The rhinoceros agreed, and Simba ordered him and Zazu to lie down among some boulders. Zazu whispered into Simba's ear that the rhinoceros was not swift, but Simba assured him that Herr Rhino would be swift when the time came. After Simba triumphed over Scar, Herr Rhino and Zazu stood next to the new king, who congratulated them on their work.[1]
