Sorry to hear of this situation. You posted this last week, "Beautiful little guy! The Rhino I just got, is from Glades Herps. They have top notch animals!My guy is fiesty as well, best thing to do in my opinion is just keep holding him daily. Good luck with him!"

You may have answered your own question there. Sounds like you stressed the bejeesus out of it. I'm not sure about it's condition at this point so you may want to seek Vet care. In the meantime, close off all contact with the animal both physical and visual, provide fresh food, correct temps, a hide and leave it be.

There are threads on here dealing with proper handling of Rhinos, read the ones by the breeders.
