Original text on this topic:
The rhino occurs in few specimens on the Okavango and the Kwando. The rhino area known to Wilhelm is located on the Lujana in an enormous thornbush district, in which there are open watering places, and which is called Tschbombo by the natives. There are about 30-40 rhinos here. According to traders and natives, the rhino would also occur in some places further west in the almost unknown part of the Hukwefeld. These are mostly black rhinos, but the white rhino also may still occur sporadically in the Tschbombo Bush.
