A similar accident is recorded in the 'Zoologist' (S.S. 1915) as having happened to a female rhinoceros at Moscow: the horn is still preserved in the museum in that city, and the animal has developed a new horn on the site of the old one - a remarkable and interesting fact: the similar position or inclination of the horn of the female in the Zoological Gardens was recorded on the same page: this horn has now been removed, as will be seen by the record immediately following this memoir.
