#008 Austin the Rhino


"Austin is a high-flying rhino. A private airline pilot with four daughters and a glamourous wife to keep in Jimmy Choos, he is a proud and hard-working father. When it is not in the captain’s chair he’s on the rowing machine in the gym or stretching his legs at breakneck speeds around the local park. He and his wife are often seen at the most high-falutin’ cocktail bars in the world, easily recognised by their immaculately dyed hair, raucous lighted and light glinting off their French-polished horns." (Kerry Lord, Edward's Menagerie, 2014)
