New SCI World Record Rhinoceros
New SCI World Record Rhinoceros (Southern White Rhinoceros) taken in South Africa.
The Rhinoceros has had its first measurement in South Africa by SCI master measurer Frank Gentry. It is a so-called green measurement, as the official final measurement only can take place three months after the trophy was taken.
Length of front horn: 36 3/8 inches
Basis of front horn: 33 7/8 inches
Length of back horn: 13 7/8 inches
Basis of back horn: 29 2/8 inches
Total: 113 3/8 inches SCI points
The present World Record has a total score of 105 3/8 inches, so even though the horn shrinks a little during the next three months, the experts are convinced that it will still be the New SCI World Record.Rhinoceros
