Original text on this topic:
Stationed in the village of Julpigoria, an outposton this frontier, situated on the banks of the Teesta. Expedition into Bhutan in May. On return, in a small patch of reeds near a swamp, we came across a herd of 7-8 rhinos. R. fired right and left and to our intense astonishment, down dropped two of the huge beasts.
