[at-l] Animals on the trail

[ATnavi@aol.com (ATnavi@aol.com)]

That would be a rhino.
Asian one-horned rhino, to be exact.

My sister and I journeyed to Chitwan National Park in Nepal two years ago, 
where we went on a "jungle walk." The leader of the walk wasn't too happy to 
be there, and there were only five of us with him. He warned us "when a rhino 
charges...climb a tree." My response: "When?" 

Anyway, he did get us within sight of a large rhino browsing in the tall 
savanna grasses; my heart about stopped.

I don't think I'll be topping that one on any of my North American hikes.

Cheers, Navigator
