Coelodonta antiquitatis, commonly known as the Woolly Rhinoceros, is an extinct species of rhinoceros that was widespread in Europe and northern Asia during the Pleistocene epoch, until its disappearance around 10,000 years ago. Characterized by its thick, woolly fur, this mammal was well-adapted to the cold, icy environments of the Last Glacial Period. It had a massive body, short, stocky legs, and two large horns on the forehead; the front horn was particularly long, used possibly for defensive purposes, to clear snow in search of food, or as a display to attract mates. The diet of the Woolly Rhinoceros primarily consisted of grasses, evidenced by dental analysis, fitting its role as a grazer in the ecosystems of the Ice Age.
