Figure of Emperor Jahangir on rhino hunt, ca. 1625. Coll. O.Sohn-Rethel, D?sseldorf.
The emperor killed the rhino with a single shot. In the english edition of the memoirs it is stated that he hunts a wolf (II, 270). The translator was unsure if the original had gurg (wolf) or karg (rhinoceros). If it were a wolf, the emperor would not have made so many remarks.
