| A rhino is generally a very easily killed animal. If you can get him broadside on with a big bore he almost always sits down at once. Facing he is less easy to kill, and if moving, often a very difficult shot indeed. |

Indian Rhino
|
| And now let us try a rhinoceros hunt. This animal is found in the same regions that the hippopotamus inhabits, but he also lives in Asia. He is rather a dangerous animal to hunt. He is a savage fellow when provoked; he has a great horn on his nose, and a skin so thick that it is almost bullet-pro... |

| I have read with much interest Captain P. Z. Cox's notes on Somaliland and I know he will excuse me if I venture to criticize his advice to sportsmen to shoot rhinoceroses in the belly. Every good sportsmen will agree that shooting at large 'into the brown' of any beast is a practice much to be ... |

| As an. item in the list of big game, he sometimes affords sufficient excitement, as he habitually charges when wounded, and not infrequently when unwounded and entirely without provocation; but on the whole he would appear to be much less formidable than the elephant, and more easily brought to ... |
