A two-horned rhino was caught somewhere in South Chittagong in January 1868. This was reported in a newspaper in Calcutta in February 1868. The rhino was taken to Chittagong town by Captain Hood and Mr Wicks shortly afterwards and then from Chittagong to London Zoo in 1872. Immediately after reaching London Zoo, a beautiful drawing of Begum was published by one Mr. Cuwelnan.
