The underlying symbolic theme of the rhinoceros is made of paradoxes: "things are not as they seem". Although the rhino is known to display aggressive behavior, for the most part it is a passive creature - preferring to roam its wide-open grassy spaces in contemplative solitude. The rhino is a creature of substance, stamina and explosive power. His intimate connection with the earth that makes it a symbol for confidence and steadiness. This design reflects both the massive-passive aspect of the animal and also his underlying internal energy and explosiveness through the flowing lines that makes this model.
