Now how long is a “car link” in metric?

Also, hard to believe that thing in the image weights as much as a rhinoceros. How much is a rhino in metric?

2300kg is the average of an adult white rhino. Although there are smaller ones, the Sumatran rhino only averages 775kg.

I can see the nanotyrannus weighing 800kg, easily

So it weighs as much as a rhino, for small values of "a rhino's weight"!

Seems to be a common practice on that type of article.
