Another unnatural death of rhino took place in Assam where a streak of tigers killed a sub-adult rhinoceros in Assam’s Orang National Park on Saturday night.
Divisional forest officer Pradipta Baruah told, “The rhino, aged about seven years, was attacked by a group of four tigers that included a female tiger and her three cubs last night. We have found pugmarks of three tigers.”
As Rhinos are a major tourist attraction in all the National Parks of the state, their conservation has been a key priority for the government and organizations. To earlier reports, the last rhino death was reported from Kaziranga, attacked with a spear by a man when it strayed into human habitation on November 24.
