Rhinoceros unicornis - died in London Zoo in 1873, female. The remarkable difference between the arrangement of the mucous membrane of the small intestine in the Indian and Sumatran rhinos (that of the former being produced into villi nearly an inch long through its whole length, whilst in the latter these were represented by valvulae conniventes) was also illustrated from specimens in spirit.
