Male born in Kathmandu. When 3 days old, it was distinguished in exterior character from its mother by a bright pink suffusion which pervaded its hide, and by the absence of the nasal horn. When a month old, he found the pink tinge gradually subsiding into an uniform dark colour, whilst the incipient horn was beginning to raise the frontal skin.
