A rhino was shot in early 1946. The rhino was first seen in the Kauk-Kwa valley, crossed the Irawaddy river, Wilatha Hills, the Taping River and was eventually shot in the Maubin Tract by the Shans. Other accounts disclosed two facts: (1) the rhino was not a wanderer from Shwe U Daung; (2) A rhino could swim a river as wide as the Irawaddy.
