ʻO nā pepeiaohao he mau mea kaua i kau ʻia e kekahi mau holoholona ma ko lākou poʻo. Ua loaʻa i ka rhino kona inoa mai kēia. Nui nā ʻano holoholona ʻē aʻe he mau pepeiaohao. ʻO nā kiwi he cone i hana ʻia me ka iwi i loko. Ma luna aʻe o ia ka pū maoli, kahi maʻamau ma loko. Aia ma waho he papa ʻili.
Ua hana ʻia ka pepeiaohao me ka ʻili, akā ua make nā ʻili. ʻO ia ke kumu i manaʻo ʻole ai nā holoholona i kekahi mea. ʻO ka lauoho a me ka hulu, nā maiʻu lima, nā maiuu a me nā māiʻuʻu, nā nuku, a me nā unahi o nā mea kolo. ʻO ka ʻelepani, ʻaʻole ia he pepeiaohao, akā, ʻo nā niho e ulu ana mai loko mai o ka iwi ā luna. Hana ʻia lākou i kahi mea ʻokoʻa.
ʻO ka hapa nui o nā pū Ma waho, he paheʻe, ribbed, a i ʻole like me ka wili. Eia naʻe, ʻaʻohe lālā o nā pepeiaohao. He mau lālā wale nō i loko o kekahi o nā kuʻekuʻe e ʻaʻahu ʻia e nā stags. Akā naʻe, ʻaʻole i hana ʻia nā kuʻekuʻe i nā pepeiaohao akā he iwi.
Hoʻokaʻawale ʻia nā holoholona me nā pepeiaohao i ʻelua ʻohana holoholona: Hoʻokumu nā rhino i kā lākou ʻohana holoholona ponoʻī. ʻO nā holoholona ʻē aʻe a pau me nā pepeiaohao, ua kapa ʻia he bovids a i ʻole like me ka pipi. Hoʻokumu pū lākou i kā lākou ʻohana holoholona. Aia nā ʻano genera like ʻole: pipi, hipa, kao, antelope, gazelle, bufalo, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe. ʻO nā holoholona a pau e komo i nā kiwi a i ʻole nā kāne wale nō e pili ana i kēlā me kēia ʻano holoholona.
He aha hou aku ka pepeiaohao?
Aia kekahi hua'ōlelo "cornea". ʻO kēia ke ʻano o nā mea ʻokoʻa ʻelua ma ko mākou kino: Ma kekahi ʻaoʻao, ʻoi aku ka mānoanoa o ka ʻili, e like me kā mākou e ʻaʻahu ai ma nā kapuaʻi. ʻO ia ka ʻili make e pono ai mākou e pale. Loaʻa iā mākou nā calluses ma ka ʻili o loko o ko mākou mau lima, no ka pale pū kekahi. Loaʻa iā mākou nā calluses ma ko mākou mau maka. He alohilohi a ma luna o ka iris a me ka haumāna.
Hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻoki i ka piko o ka pū, a laila puhi e like me ka pū. Hana kēia i nā leo like ʻole. ʻO ia paha ke ʻano o ka mea kani i kapa ʻia ʻo "horn". I kēia lā, nui nā ʻano like ʻole.

Ua like loa ia me ka pepeiaohao o ka holoholona, ʻoiai ʻoi aku ka nui.
