The number of rhino in Kaziranga was believed to have been about 300 in 1940, when one could go in on insepction elephants and see a dozen quite easily. Nowadays, however, a similar visit would produce only half that number, and a number of rhino are known to have died of anthrax in 1947 - no less than 14 carcases having been found.
