Original text on this topic:
The Kaoko rhino, observed for long periods by Steinhardt, all undertook more or less long wanderings, apparently according to the seasons. For instance, the rhinos which sometimes appear near Outjo come from the middle Ugab region, and the two animals living near Orusewa go to the neighbourhood of Outjo, while the male in Otjikuara often walks far in northeastern direction. The animals from the Large and Small Ombasu go to the Omuhonga Mountains. Nevertheless, for all these animals a certain home locality, probably their place of birth, could be established.
