The locations mentioned by Peacock are not clear. When the writer visited Putao in Dec 1951, he was informed of a Dicerorhinus sumatrensis shot by a Lishu hunter on Mansi Likun Hills in 1943. The Manse Sawbwa received the posterior horn and some dried blood. Mr Sanhta Seng estimated 4-6 specimens of rhino still surviving in the Nam Lang valley.
