Dino Rhinos, sometimes hyphenated as Dino-Rhinos, are enemies introduced in Super Mario World. They are Ceratopsian dinosaurs with dark green bodies.
History
Super Mario series
Super Mario World
Dino-Rhinos are enemies in Super Mario World. They are encountered in Chocolate Island. Dino Rhinos follow Mario and jump over short obstacles to get him. When Mario jumps on one, it turns into a Dino-Torch. Dino-Torches are capable of breathing fire, unlike their bigger form, although there are unused sprites of Dino-Rhinos breathing fire. Mario can also defeat the enemy in one go by Spin Jumping on one or jumping on it with Yoshi. Yoshi can eat Dino-Torches, but not the large Dino-Rhinos. Additionally, Dino-Rhinos are immune to fireballs.
Super Mario Bros. 3 remakes
The king of Sea Side has been transformed into a purple Dino Rhino in both the Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 remakes of Super Mario Bros. 3.
Super Mario World television series
Dino-Rhinos, though never named as such, appeared only once in the Super Mario World television series. In the episode "Send in the Clown", a Dino-Rhino, along with two Dino-Torches, was shown to be held in a cage in King Koopa's "Koopaling Bros. Circus". After being shoved into this cage by Koopa, Mario narrowly avoids being eaten by the Dino-Rhino, which he defeats by shooting fireballs into the creature's mouth after transforming into Fire Mario by using a Fire Flower.
Nintendo Adventure Books
While traveling through a forest in the Nintendo Adventure Book Flown the Koopa, Mario, Luigi, Toad, and the Mushroom King encounter a herd of Dino Rhinos that, depending on how the reader solves the accompanying puzzle, will either narrowly miss the quartet or run them down, causing them to lose their International Dino-Flying Derby tickets and some Coins. In Unjust Desserts, after shedding his Toad disguise around the beginning of the story, Bowser escapes Mushroom Palace by jumping out a window and onto the back of a waiting Dino Rhino. Other Dino Rhinos are shrunk by Magikoopa, and some of them are eaten by Yoshi and can be encountered by Mario, both inside and outside the dinosaur's body.
In the final book, Brain Drain, Mario and Luigi (who is in the body of a Koopa Troopa due to Iggy Koopa's Synapse Switcher) can encounter a group of Dino Rhinos and Sumo Bros. Luigi can gain the trust of these enemies if he "scares" Mario away, but will wind up switching bodies again (if he does not have pizza to plug his ears with) when the group decides to celebrate by listening to a radio that Iggy is using to broadcast the Synapse Switcher's signal.
Paper Mario series
Paper Mario
In Paper Mario, a white version of Dino Rhinos, called Albino Dinos, appear as guards in the Crystal Palace. They would have additionally (or instead) been enemies that Mario could fight, but they were removed. However, their battle data remains complete within the game's files.
Paper Mario: Color Splash
In Paper Mario: Color Splash, Dino Rhinos appear in Mossrock Theater. They attack by ramming and breathing fire, like a Dino-Torch. Stronger counterparts known as Wild Dino Rhinos appear in The Emerald Circus, alongside an Animal Trainer Shy Guy.
Paper Mario: The Origami King
One Dino Rhino appears as an NPC in Paper Mario: The Origami King. It appears in the Shroom City café, singing alongside a Ptooie and a Sombrero Guy.
The in-game concept art shows that origami Dino Rhinos were originally going to be enemies.
