Original text on this topic:
1940-1946. A forest ranger of Thayetmo, met by Ansell in August 1946 at Prome, mentioned:
- Thaledan Forest Reserve, mud wallows used by rhino
- Mindon, forests, reputed to contain few rhinoceros
- Eastern side of the range, maximum number 4-5, migratory rather than resident
- Blood and bones of rhino reported to be in somebody's possession in Arakan Yomas.
Mr Castens, in Arakan some years ago, fair number of two-horned rhino.
