Additional Information: The Woolly Rhinoceros is an extinct species of Rhinoceros that was common throughout Europe and northern Asia during the Pleistocene which lasted from 2.5 million to 11,700 years ago. This animal became extinct because of several reasons including hunting, climate change, and diseases. The Woolly Rhinoceros coexisted with the Woolly Mammoth and both sometimes shared the same forage areas. The Woolly Rhinoceros used in the knife handles came from Siberia. Most of these fossils come from native people who collect them on river banks and from various digging sites. This particular piece used for the knife handle is from near the exterior of the bone and has nice identations on each side. Each side also has some exposed bone cells for additional character.

Most camels today are domesticated and they provide meat, milk, hair, and bones. The leg bones are often used for making knife handle. These leg bones are slightly more dense than cow leg bones, polishes to a beautiful luster, and provides a nice contrast to the Fossil Woolly Rhinoceros Bone.
