The belief that R. sondaicus is found only in low-lying swampy country is contradicted by S. H. Prater who states that this species has been recorded at heights up to 7,000 feet above sea level. I have received reports of unusually large tracks in Malaya up to 4,000 feet. Similar feeding habits are attributed to both R. sondaicus and R. sumatrensis and I have personally observed the latter from sea level to over 4,000 feet.
