The reason for this unusual name is a bit of a mystery. Some theories suggest:
* The sound of their movements: The heavy, crashing footsteps of a herd of rhinos could be the origin of the name.
* Their behaviour: Rhinos can be quite aggressive and unpredictable, leading to the idea of a "crash" of rhinos implying a sudden and forceful encounter.
* Early explorers' observations: Some believe early explorers mistook the rhinoceroses' crashing sounds for thunder, leading to the association of the word "crash" with them.
Whatever the origin, the name "crash" is a unique and memorable way to describe a group of these powerful and impressive animals.
