The return of the unicorns: the natural history and conservation of the greater one horned rhinoceros [1]

The return of the unicorns is an account of what it takes to save endangered large mammals. The author outlines the multifaceted recovery program--structured around targeted fieldwork and scientific research, effective protective measures, habitat planning and management, public-awareness campaigns, economic incentives to promote local guardianship, and bold, uncompromising leadership--that brought these extraordinary animals back from the brink of extinction.
