Original text on this topic:
In September, M?ller found a mother and a calf which was about three months old. When the hunters approached, the mother fled and left her calf behind, which had to be killed because it was very wild. The mating season is in August, according to Junghuhn. Every evening after nightfall, he heard a cry which sounded like that of a buffalo, but more refined and more wild. It was the cry of the rhinoceros.
