Original text on this topic:
The Gouveneur General himself was good enough to institute enquiries and through his good offices His Excellency Tiao Phetsarath, Native Inspector of Political and Administative Affairs in Laos was able to send information of considerable interest. During the last few years, the only rhino he knew of that had been killed was at Traninh in January 1925, within three hours of the waterfall along the road from Xieng-Khounag to Vinh. None were known to have been captured for a long period.
