animaris rhinoceros transport

There are walking skeletons built of lightweight electrical tubes and are wind-powered and can move over any terrain. There is a creature called the animaris rhinoceros transport that is equipped with passanger seating and can be used for transport. Due to the fact that one must wait until strong wind comes from the right direction, living quarters must be made in the animal to make travel aggreable.

The Animaris Rhinoceros Transport is a type of animal with a steel skeleton and a polyester skin. It weighes 2. tons, but can be set into motion by one person. It stands 4.70 meters tall. Because of its height it catches enough wind to start moving.

Although the video does show a person setting it into motion, it is still designed to be moved by the wind.
