Paraceratherium was a large extinct genus of rhino that lacked a horn. It was one of the largest ever land mammals, estimated at approximately 4.8m tall at the shoulder, and 7.4m in length. 

It was a herbivore that stripped leaves from trees. It had a long, low, hornless skull and long frontal and nasal bones. Its front teeth had a single pair of incisors in either jaw. They were round, pointed, and so large that they looked like small tusks. 

They lived in a huge rainforest floodplain in the area which is now Kazakhstan, India, and southwest China. They lived further inland throughout northern and central Asia as well. This area was a rainforest before the Himalayan uplift changed the climate.

Paraceratherium is perhaps better known by some as Indricotherium, although this name is no longer in use.
