Original text on this topic:
Mr Nguyen van Hiep has received reports that both one- and two-horned rhinos are still found in Vietnam. The Rhinoceros sondaicus still exists in mountainous regions. It prefers densely vegetated hillocks where there are wet valleys in which it can find ideal places to wallow. It is most likely to be found in the zone of the Three Frontiers (Cambodia - Laos - Vietnam borders).
