Displaced by floods, rhinos released back into wild
Manas (Assam): It was a freedom stroll in the wild for three female one-horned rhinoceros of the UNESCO world heritage site, Manas Sanctuary in the foothills of the Himalayas, last week.
Hand-raised by the wildlife experts for more than six years at a rescue centre in Assam's Kaziranga National Park, the rhino calves were displaced from their natural habitat due to floods in the sanctuary.
