Rhinoceros sondaicus. The last specimen shot in the district - in fact in Burma, was obtained by Mr. Theodore Hubback in 1920, near Victoria Point, the extreme southerly point of the country. It is now in the British Museum, and though immature, was a full grown female five feet at the shoulder. According to Pollock and Thom, the Javan rhinoceros must have at one time been widely distributed in Burma.
