Detailed explanation-1: -The Indian state of Assam is home to the largest population of greater-one horned rhinos, with more than 90% in Kaziranga National Park.
Detailed explanation-2: -Kaziranga National Park is a national park in the Golaghat and Nagaon districts of the state of Assam, India. The park, which hosts two-thirds of the world’s great one-horned rhinoceroses, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Detailed explanation-3: -However, no more than 2, 000 remain in the wild, with only two populations containing more than 100 rhinos: Kaziranga National Park in Assam, India (1, 200) and Chitwan National Park (CNP), Nepal (600).
Detailed explanation-4: -Kaziranga is regarded as one of the finest wildlife refuges in the world. The park’s contribution in saving the Indian one-horned rhinoceros from the brink of extinction at the turn of the 20th century to harbouring the single largest population of this species is a spectacular conservation achievement.
