My beloved daughter has just informed me that she keeps a Rhinoceros in the back yard. But not just an “ordinary” Rhinoceros. Apparently, this particular odd toed ungulate is an “enormous” Rhino; she was very keen that I understand this wasn’t just some titchy little African Savannah dweller. Oh, and apparently she rides around on it. When I asked her if she held onto the horn in order to keep her balance, she told me I was being silly. Apparently it has a big cape on its back, and she holds onto that.
So, just to reiterate, if my daughter is telling the 100% unblemished truth:
There’s an enormous Rhinoceros in a cape wandering around in my back yard.
Should I be worried?
Somebody take this dark cloud away…

Is it eating cake?

The thought did cross my mind, but I wasn’t brave enough to ask…

I’d only worry if you started to see it as well.

Does it have a name?

It can’t eat cake and wear cape. That would be overdoing it.
