The Kahilu Sanctuary in Thaton Division, 62 square miles in extent, was originally instituted for the protection of Rhinoceros sondaicus (one horned variety). Doubt exists whether this species still thrives. The pre-war official figure was in the neighbourhood of six specimens. They are fond of eating chilli crops and do some damage to taungyas, when they roam out of range.
