A patrolling team found the horn and hooves in the inner part of the Malli post, he said. The rhino might have been killed around seven months ago, he said. "The gender and age of the rhino have not been established yet. Its horn and hooves, and the skeleton were found two days ago. An investigation is ongoing," he said. Twenty two rhinos were killed in the CNP in the previous year.
