Featured Article: Woolly rhinoceros
Woolly rhinoceros, or simply Woolly Rhino, is the common name for an extinct, plant-eating species of rhinoceros, Coelodonta antiquitatis, that lived in Europe and Asia from about 350,000 years ago until about 10,000 years ago. With fossils indicating a range throughout Northern Europe and Eastern Asia, from South Korea to Scotland to Spain, the woolly rhinoceros may have had, during the later part of the Pleistocene epoch, the most extensive range of any known living or extinct rhinoceros. The woolly rhinoceros appears in the cave paintings of early humans.
Popular Article: Tenant farming
A tenant farmer traditionally refers to a farmer who does not own the land that he lives on and works, but rather it is owned by a landlord. Generally, the landlord contributes the land, capital, and management, while the tenants contribute their labor, and possibly some capital. The returns from the crops are shared in a variety of ways, depending on the agreement between landlord and tenant.
