Some time back I published a brief notice of a peculiar infirmity of the female Indian rhinoceros at the Zoo (Zool. S. S. 2341), namely, that her horn was loose and toppled forward, so as to come into contact with her nose: this irritated the part against which it rested, eventually causing a so...

The Sumatran rhinoceros (Rhinoceros sumatranus) is much less than the Indian species, Rhinoceros unicornis, two magnifcent specimens of which are already in our collection, both unfortunately mutilated by the loss of their horn: the first loss, that of the male, was an instance of self-mutilation...

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 o...

Both the horns in the individual now before me have the appearance of having been sawn off, an appearance admirably represented in the masterly figure of the animal published at p.233 of the 'Field' newspaper, a faithful representation of nature which does the artist infinite credit. In this and...

Interested, like very many others, in the curious feat of self-mutilation performed by the male rhinoceros at the Zoo, I paid him a visit on Saturday, August the 27th, expecting to see the horn itself adorned with a label notifying the particulars of so extraordinary an event: in this I was disap...
