Shortly before his death in 1979, M. Etienne Cannone (a French hunter who went out to Tchad at the age of eighteen and is credited with killing over a hundred black rhino on the Aouk River) informed M. Lefol that he had also shot about a dozen white rhino in this region, or the Doseo, Mya and Keita tributaries, probably about 1936/7 (Lefol pers comm. 1985). This report extends the range of the white rhino 135 km further west than that indicated by Lavauden.
