The narrator suggests the first rhinoceros sheltered under ____a) roof
b) tree
c) nest

Answers

"The narrator" is unclear here. However, due to the size of a rhinoceros, it would make sense for the first rhinoceros to be sheltered under a tree, as rhinos aren't usually in buildings under roofs, and there's no way a rhino could fit under a nest or pebble, since rhinos are huge. This answer could change depending on the question's context.
