Note
Location World Subject General Species All Rhino Species

The Natural History Museum has received a valuable present from the Maharajah of Kuch Behar,in the shape of an unusually fine specimen of the Indian rhinoceros. The species is now to be found only in a small part of the Assam jungle, in the Maharajah's territory, and the Museum has for many years been endeavouring to get a specimen. It is due to his Highness's direct intervention that the one now at South Kensington was obtained.
