District Bhagulpoor. In most of the wild parts of the district, the rhinoceros is occasionally but very rarely seen. Formerly, in the marshes at the foot of the hills between Rajmahal and Sakarigali, there were many, and even now there are always some, but they have been so much disturbed by European sportsmen, that they have become scarce, and exceedingly shy. They never did much harm.
