Alipurduar, Feb. 15: A woman has been gored and bitten to death by a rhino in Jaldapara even as foresters get ready to conduct a census on the animal in the sanctuary this weekend.

On Friday evening, Pramila Munda (50) of Pradhan Para in Alipurduar, along with other villagers, had entered the Moiradanga beat to collect firewood. They were chased by a rhino on their return home.
