According to Department of National Park and Wildlife Conservation and WWF Nepal, no rhino was poached in 2011. This report doesn’t seem to have grounds, as the 141st issue of Headlines Himalaya reported killing of Male rhino in Chitwan earlier in 2011.  The department also claimed that this year 235 arrests were made against wildlife criminals and handing over of 141 guns to the park officials by the communities near the park area.
