Original text on this topic:
Turning again to the ' Zoologist,' it is recorded by Mr. Arthur Adams, at p. 7328 of the volume for 1861, that at Mew Bay, in Java, near the Straits of Sunda, `the ground is literally ploughed up by the tracks of these unwieldy brutes.' The brutes in question beyond doubt this species, Rhinoceros sondaicus, no other species inhabiting that island.
