| Medicine to make an elephant fat (mantra gajah). This is another remedy: we take the skin of a rhinoceros' navel and soak it in water with some Siamese salt and some honey. Then we give the elephant the skin to eat with its food: we pour the liquid over the elephant and give it some to drink. ... |

| Quite unexpectedly, the Bahdak raised its head, tried to get the smell, and then came directly running towards me, making grunting noises. Only with great pains I was able to hide behind the roots of a Ficus-tree, as it was difficult to run quickly in the tall grass. The attack of the animal wi... |

The Malays call such an animal 'badak tapa', or the 'recluse' rhino. Especially towards the close of the rain... |

For this animal, according to m... |

On the authority of the late Dr. Mason, Kyan is the generic term in Burma for a rh... |
