Original text on this topic:
Record most observations as Rhinoceros sondaicus, although not absolutely able to ascertain if this is correct in every case. For Didermocerus sumatrensis lasiotis, there is no record of its presence in Laos. The only record of its existence is that of De Monestrol, who said that he had in his hands a skin from Laos. The Lao name is Sou, of which some old hunters say that it aplies to a single-horned animal, which would mean that Rhinoceros unicornis was known in Laos.
