During my stay at Sakerat in eastern Siam, I was told by the Chief of the village that a very large and fierce rhino had been shot some years ago quite close to the village, but after first having killed two of the hunters.
Rhinos are only to be found in the most northern parts of Upper Siam, but here they seemed to be not common according to a statement by Dr H?gbom, who observed several tracks in the jungles surrounding the twons of Chien Kong, Chieng Sen and Muang Fang.
Two species are said to inhabit Siam. The most common form seems to be the smaller one-horned rhino.
