Distribution. Chiefly the Assam plain at the present day. At one 

 time this animal was found over the greater part of the Indian 

 peninsula, as attested by fossil remains, but now it is restricted 

 to Assam ; its place farther south in the Sanderbans, Chittagong, 

 and Burma being taken by the smaller R. sondaicus.
