TRANQUILISERS BEING USED TO POACH RHINOS- INDIA



While Assam police is on a war footing against Rhino horn poachers with a series of arrests across the state, it seems that the poachers are devising new methods to poach the endangered one-horned rhinos. While former rebels are turning to poaching of Rhinos with sophisticated AK rifles, tranquilisers were recovered from four poachers. Over 40 rhinos of Kaziranga have died this year and half of them have fallen prey to poaching.
