Original text on this topic:
Snakebites. The curative power of rhinoceros horn for snake bites still needs confirmation in those cases, in which it is certain that the victim was bitten by a poisonous snake. It is desirable that in case of snake bites which are common in these districts, the snake itself is sent to the experts for observation together with accurate notes about the poisoning and the time and method in which rhinoceros horn or other medicines are applied.
