The indian unicorn! :)
When you mention wildlife in India, people automatically think of tigers, leopards, elephants and monkeys, but very few people associate India with rhinoceroses. The Indian rhino, also known as the greater one-horned rhino, is found in the riverine grasslands at the foot of the Himalayas in north India and Nepal. There are approximately 3000 rhinos left in the wild, 2000 of which are found in Assam, one of India’s most north-easterly states, and most of these specifically in Kaziranga national park and tiger reserve.
The Indian rhinoceros , also called the greater one-horned rhinoceros and great Indian rhinoceros, is a rhinoceros species native to the Indian subcontinent. It is listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, as populations are fragmented and restricted to less than 20,000 km2 .
