Description
"Carl?""Easy, Frank."
These two handsome young fellows are Carl and Frank from "Ice Age". Sculpted by hand and each about one-and-a-half inches long, they were shown in the first film when Sid the Sloth comes around looking for a quick snack and finds it. They nearly kill him in retribution and here we see the two rhino-like beasties confronting the cameraman (me) for being a little too close.

Frank has a horn? I thought he was a Megacerops, not a reali rhino

Not quite sure what you mean.
Carl is the one with the thick horn, Frank is the one with the thin horn.
And no, neither is a rhino. Β They're brontotheres, as you know, which basically resembled rhinos in all but size.

I knew that (in fact, they didnt really resemble rhinos; their legs were longer, and they didnt have front lips, and thats not counting their shoulder height), but behind Frank's horn there is a sharp one.

I meant *superficially* resembled rhinos, as in the way that frogs superficially resemble toads; brontotheres and rhinos aren't exactly carbon copies of one another, but from a lay perspective, they appear similar.
As for that "horn" on Frank's head, it isn't one. Β What it is is a bit of stylized skin, just as the character appeared in the movie.
