Original text on this topic:
The sanctuary was visited during the year by the game Warden and the Divisional Forest Officer, Mogok, both of whom saw a rhinoceros near Sagadaung camp at an altitude of 5000 feet. Unfortunately the animal was too far to distinguish whether it was a Rhinoceros sumatrensis or R. sondaicus. It is suspected and hoped that a specimen or two of the latter very rare species exist in this sanctuary.
