Original text on this topic:
The following rhino wallows were reported. In subdivision Redjang. According to a hunter called Merasoetan or Tjotek, living in the Doesoen Keloebak, there are still rhinos on the slopes of the Boekit Kelam, in the region on the right side, which is east of the road from Tjoeroep to Moeara Aman. However, he has never been there himself and does not know the number of wallows. Another rhino hunter called Semi, still alive, living in the Doesoen Tabah Renah, 3 km from Tjoeroep, could not be interviewed; possibly he knows more about these animals.
