The Asian Plains feature Indian rhinos, Malayan sambar deer, axis deer, nilgai, blackbuck, Persian goitered gazelle, Indian gaur and Altai wapiti. Unlike Lapham, who believes that we are really all just like the rich, and who talks to us as if we know what nilgai is, Allen's tone suggests that until recently he had never heard of rich people and is sure that we haven't either.
