In Oryx September 1971, (pp 103–107), we described the rediscovery in Assam of two animals that had been feared extinct—the pygmy hog Sus sylvanius and the hispid hare Caprolagus hispidus. Guy Mountfort, who recently returned from a visit to India, Nepal and Sikkim on behalf of the World Wildlife Fund, reports encouraging news of these two Red Book species.
