I followed down the Pran valley to the next Karang hamlet and ascending a range of 600 m to the south east, crossed ober into the Huey Sat Yai, a stream considerable bigger than the parent Pran river. On the march we found old evidences of rhinoceros.
Two days later, continuing the march upstream, the fresh tracks of rhinoceros were found. I have not yet seen one, but from the fact of native hunters recognizing the raadt (one-horned) and kra-soo (two horns), it is almost certain that both R. sondaicus and R. sumatrensis exist in the area.
