Three incidents with Ceratotherium simum. The first during April when a native woman was gored in the thigh and had to receive hospital treatment. In June, a native male was killed; this accident occurred at dusk and it is not known what he was doing at the time, since the deceased was accompanied by dogs and not near any recognized road. The third accident resulted in a dislocated shoulder to a native male, this man being knocked over and trodden on by a black rhino in thick bush near the Chief Conservator's house.
