At Alor Star, Kedah, the malays told me no rhinoceros was known in that district, which is mostly flat; they looked on it as an animal only inhabiting the mountains.
In the south of Perak, a friend told me he had once seen a rhinoceros in a swamp, it was reddish in colour.
The Bangkok Times for 11 November 1897 mentions a rhino being shot by Mr. C. Ephraums - no species indicated - few details: animal was seen at a sulphur spring within 6 miles of Ipoh, Perak.
