World Rhino Day focus on India-Bhutan joint conservation
World Rhino Day highlighted a joint India‑Bhutan effort to protect the one‑horned rhino. A translocation initiative in Manas Tiger Reserve raised the local population from none to 48 over two decades. However, the growing cross‑border movement of the animals is prompting new management concerns for both nations. Authorities are assessing habitat corridors and disease risk, while seeking collaborative monitoring to ensure sustainable growth.
