"Rhino tank" (initially called "Rhinoceros") was the American nickname for Allied tanks fitted with "tusks", or bocage cutting devices, during World War II. The British designation for the modifications was Prongs. The devices have been credited with restoring battlefield mobility in the difficult terrain, a claim which some historians question.

rdfs:comment	Die Culin Hedgerow Cutter (engl., dt. Culin-Heckenscheren) waren spitze und schräg geschnittene, ursprünglich improvisierte, Eisenwinkel und Träger, die an der Vorderseite alliierter Panzer im Zweiten Weltkrieg angebracht waren. So ausgerüstete Fahrzeuge waren bei den amerikanischen Truppen auch als „Rhino tanks“ bekannt. Die Briten bezeichneten die gleiche Konstruktion als Prongs. (de) Tanque Rino (inicialmente llamado "Rinoceronte") fue el apodo estadounidense dado a los tanques Aliados de la Segunda Guerra Mundial equipados con "colmillos" o aparatos cortadores de setos. La denominación británica para las modificaciones era Prongs. Aunque se les ha atribuido a los aparatos el haber restaurado la movilidad en el difícil terreno, los historiadores han puesto en duda su empleo generalizado y su significado táctico.

La désignation britannique pour les modifications était Prongs. Les appareils furent crédités d'une restauration de la mobilité du champ de bataille sur le terrain difficile, une affirmation que certains historiens remettent en question. (fr)
