If you give a rhinoceros a cookie, he's going to want all of your cookies. All of them. Rhinos don't mess around when it comes to cookies. You'll be all like, "Hey, those are my cookies!" But he'll be like, "I'm a rhino. What're you gonna do about it?" Then you'll be cookieless.
But it doesn't stop there. After the rhinoceros takes all your cookies, then he's going to take your milk. Again, all of it. The entire gallon. Then he'll burn down your house, because he happens to also be an arsonist.
As rhinoceroses go, you picked a nasty one.

Charging Rhino
"Harry, get back into the jeep. You're not supposed to leave the vehicle during an African safari!"
"Aw shucks, Ellen. They're just animals."
Mbatu the safari guide spoke up, "Mr. Smith, please come back. There's a rhinoceros charging you!"
"That's not a problem. It just wants to play."
"Mr. Smith, I can assure you that the rhino does not want to 'play.'"
Mbatu and Ellen averted their eyes to save themselves from the impending impact, but no 'splat' sound came, just a strange deep purring.
"See!" shouted Harry, "He just wants his tummy scratched! Who's a good boy? Yes, you are!"
