PIERRE OLIVIER-ANTOINE is a professor of paleontology at the University of Montpellier, France, with a special interest in rhinoceroses and their extinct relatives. His research takes him all over the world; Pierre has led many expeditions to such far-flung places as the Amazon and the Andes.

MARK from Evolution Soup talks to Pierre about rhinos in the Ice Age and even further back in time - from the famed Woolly Rhino to the so-called Siberian Unicorn, Elasmotherium, as well as the hornless Paraceratherium, the biggest mammal to have ever walked the earth.
