Javan Rhino (sondaicus)
Ranau area is southernmost part of residency of Palembang. A human's life ago this area was still full of rhino, especially on the easily climbed Bt. Sepatoehoe, as i was told in a letter by Gustav Fischer of Poelau Rimau (Palembang). In 1930 I still knew rhino in the ravines south of Bt. Sepatoehoe. Tracks can now only be seen regaularly on the higer, densely forested south slopes of the G. Seminoeng.
