A rhinoceros was seen by local people in the Punikhal area of Sonai Reserved Forest of Cachar District, southern Assam. Probably also a Dicerorhinus sumatrensis, because until 1890 this species was once encountered infrequently in the Katakhal and Innerline Reserved Forests of Hailakandi and Cachar districts.
