We traveled to the border of India with Nepal, where began the legend of a creature able to attract people from around the world: The Unicorn India.
An incredible animal with a horn on its forehead, which can cure the ills of poor people who share ground with him. We follow the traces of this myth built 20 centuries ago crossing a jungle inhabited by wild creatures among which stands out one, the unicorn and is now known as the Indian rhinoceros, a unique species with enormous power on his forehead.
▶ Documentary "On the Tracks of the Unicorn"
http://pdoc.es/UnicornPL
Along the border between Nepal and India, there runs a strip of rainforests which alternate with the meadows of the lowlands. Open jungle whose floor, rich in pasture, provides food for many species of herbivores.
The presence of the Bengal tiger means the herbivores of the jungle must constantly be on the alert. Danger is ever-present.
But the tiger is not the only giant of these forests. On the intense green ground there is an animal which not even he would dare attack. The gaur, it is the largest wild bovine in the world.
All these biological marvels were already here two thousand years ago, when the first travellers spoke of this land as a magical place, inhabited by fantastic creatures, above all one in particular, the unicorn. The myth lives here, and it is the Indian rhinoceros. Just a few hundred years ago, the Indian rhinoceros grazed on all the flood plains of the Indus, the Ganges and the Brahmaputra, but now it has been reduced to just two national parks: Chitwan in Nepal and Kaziranga in India, 70% of the world population of Indian rhinoceroses live in the Kaziranga National Park.
But our unicorns have a taste for the high grasses of the banks of the swamp, and both in Kaziranga and here in Chitwan, these grasses are also a valuable resource for the human populations living around the edge of the park.
Since 1973, when it was declared a National Park, due to the fact it was the only place in Nepal where rhinoceroses remained, a number of human settlements have been moved, the people transferred to more fertile places without wild herbivores.
When the season arrives, the local inhabitants cross the river, and enter the reserves, armed with their recently-sharpened sickles.
The Indian rhinoceros deposits its faeces, creating over the years large piles which act as olfactory markers or beacons, defining its territory. Gigantic dung heaps that are impossible to ignore even for the least sensitive nose.
Another of the paradoxes of the ancient unicorn is that its horn is not the part of its body the Nepalese most appreciate.
They come to the dung heaps in search of what they swear is an infallible remedy for coughs. For them, the enormous piles of dung are a plentiful supply of the ingredients for the finest tobacco.
Rhinos are essentially solitary animals, but when the males reach sexual maturity, at ten years of age, they fight even the females when they meet. For the time being, Chitwan and Kaziranga are a good home for the rhinoceroses, with around 400 in the Nepalese park and 1,200 in the Indian one. The Indian rhinoceros have changed very little in the last million years. Rhinoceroses are perfectly content half-submerged in their very own vegetable soup, from which they eat while placing virtually no stress on their backbone, which most of the time has to carry the enormous weight of the animal.
In Bangkok, a kilo of Indian rhinoceros horn costs over three million pesetas. And, in a region where poverty is rife, the temptation to poach is enormous. The magic horn which made it a legend almost led to it join the dinosaurs, the dodo and the mammoth in the book of extinct species.
The charges for entering and camping in the park, the price of elephant tours, and lodging and permits, generate increasing income, making the local people more and more convinced that they are fortunate in having a national park on their doorstep.
Perhaps it was all true. Perhaps this is the magic of the unicorn. Night is drawing in around the Himalayas. Mist descends over the jungle where the last Indian rhinoceroses live. For some a green hell, for others the mythological forest inhabited by celestial creatures and unicorns; a place which holds an incredible fascination for all.
That is how the legend was born, with the translucent wings of the bats, perhaps under the effects of a fever, but it was here, by the Brahmaputra. It was all true. This is the home of an incredible animal, with a single horn emerging from its forehead, which can cure all the evils of the poor peoples with whom it shares this land. A being capable of attracting people from all over the world, simply in the hope of seeing it. The legend did not lie, the unicorn exists.

All these biological marvels were already here two thousand years ago, when the first travellers spoke of this land as a magical place, inhabited by fantastic creatures, above all one in particular, the unicorn. Its horn, which they called an “alicornis”, was a sure antidote to any poison, which it immediately detected and neutralised.
The myth lives here, and it is the Indian rhinoceros. Its means of defence was, in fact, imported into Europe until the end of the eighteenth century, as “unicorn horns”, to be used as remedies for a wide range of illnesses, and this belief still continues in traditional Asian medicine. Its leathery skin was also used for defence by men, in the form of shields for the soldiers. This armour plating protects them from attacks by tigers.
The fact that man coveted certain parts of its body brought the Indian rhinoceros to the verge of extinction, and by 1960 barely a hundred remained.
At this time of year, the rhinoceroses and a number of species of deer, such as the sambars and the chitals, spend many hours here. Just a few hundred years ago, the Indian rhinoceros grazed on all the flood plains of the Indus, the Ganges and the Brahmaputra, but now it has been reduced to just two national parks: Chitwan in Nepal and Kaziranga in India.
70% of the world population of Indian rhinoceroses live in the Kaziranga National Park, ; for them, and for the Asian elephants, water provides a refuge from the heat, and a place in which their enormous body weight is a little easier to bear.
Another of the treasures of these jungles is the only animal capable of taking advantage of the meat of herbivores as large as the great buffalos. The presence of the tiger is the cause of one of the greatest problems – the coexistence of the National Parks and the people who live close by them.

The Toronto Zoo's 11 year old female rhinoceros Ashakiran, gave birth to a male calf on Wednesday, February 17th at 9:42 pm.
A rhinoceros' gestation period lasts 462-491 days (approximately 16 months) and this is the first surviving calf for Asha and Vishnu, our 12 year old male rhino. As of mid-January, Ashakiran, affectionately known as "Asha", was moved from public viewing to a maternity area where she was monitored closely. While the calf appears healthy and feeding well, the first 30 days will be critical for both mom and calf and Zoo staff will continue to closely monitor them both. Please note that they are not visible to the public at this time.
Indian rhinos are listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN with approximately only 2,000 left in the wild. The Toronto Zoo is part of the Species Survival Plan (SSP) for this species and aims to establish and maintain a healthy, genetically diverse populations, and supports conservation efforts in the wild through the Toronto Zoo Endangered Species Reserve Fund.

Rhinocerous seen taking a dip inside a water at Kaziranga National Park, Assam.
The Indian rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis), also called the greater one-horned rhinoceros and one-horned Indian rhinoceros, belongs to the Rhinocerotidae family. Listed as a vulnerable species, the large mammal is primarily found in north-eastern India's Assam and in protected areas in the Terai of Nepal, where populations are confined to the riverine grasslands in the foothills of the Himalayas.
The Indian rhinoceros once ranged throughout the entire stretch of the Indo-Gangetic Plain, but excessive hunting reduced the natural habitat drastically. Today, about 3,000 rhinos live in the wild, 2,000 of which are found in India's Assam alone.
It is the fifth largest land animal.
Among terrestrial land mammals native to Asia, the Indian rhinoceros is second in size only to the Asian elephant. This heavily built species is also the second-largest living rhinoceros, behind only the white rhinoceros. Males have an average head and body length of 368--380 cm (12.07--12.47 ft) with a shoulder height of 163--193 cm (5.35--6.33 ft), while females have an average head and body length of 310--340 cm (10.2--11.2 ft) and a shoulder height of 147--173 cm (4.82--5.68 ft). [verification needed] The weights of captive individuals from the Basel Zoo were around 1,600 kg (3,500 lb) on average for the females and around 2,100 kg (4,600 lb) on average for the males. The skull is heavy with a basal length above 60 cm (24 in) and an occiput above 19 cm (7.5 in).
The largest sized specimens can range up to 4,000 kg (8,800 lb).
The rhino's single horn is present in both males and females, but not on newborn young. The black horn is pure keratin, like human fingernails, and starts to show after about six years. In most adults, the horn reaches a length of about 25 cm (9.8 in), but has been recorded up to 57.2 cm (22.5 in) in length.The nasal horn is slightly back-curved with a base of about 18.5 cm (7.3 in) by 12 cm (4.7 in) that rapidly narrows until a smooth, even stem part begins about 55 mm (2.2 in) above base. In captive animals, the horn is frequently worn down to a thick knob.
The Indian rhinoceros has thick, silver-brown skin, which becomes pinkish near the large skin folds that cover its body. Its upper legs and shoulders are covered in wart-like bumps. It has very little body hair, aside from eyelashes, ear fringes and tail brush. Males develop thick neck folds.
Kaziranga National Park is a national park in the Golaghat and Nagaon districts of the state of Assam, India. A World Heritage Site, the park hosts two-thirds of the world's Great One-horned Rhinoceroses. Kaziranga boasts the highest density of tigers among protected areas in the world and was declared a Tiger Reserve in 2006. The park is home to large breeding populations of elephants, wild water buffalo, and swamp deer. Kaziranga is recognized as an Important Bird Area by Birdlife International for conservation of avifaunal species. Compared to other protected areas in India, Kaziranga has achieved notable success in wildlife conservation. Located on the edge of the Eastern Himalaya biodiversity hotspot, the park combines high species diversity and visibility.
Kaziranga is a vast expanse of tall elephant grass, marshland, and dense tropical moist broadleaf forests, crisscrossed by four major rivers, including the Brahmaputra, and the park includes numerous small bodies of water. Kaziranga has been the theme of several books, songs, and documentaries. The park celebrated its centennial in 2005 after its establishment in 1905 as a reserve forest.

Indian rhinoceros
The Indian rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis), also called the greater one-horned rhinoceros and great Indian rhinoceros, is a rhinoceros 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 (7,700 sq mi). Moreover, the extent and quality of the rhino's most important habitat, alluvial grassland and riverine forest, is considered to decline due to human and livestock encroachment.
The Indian rhinoceros once ranged throughout the entire stretch of the Indo-Gangetic Plain, but excessive hunting and agricultural development reduced their range drastically to 11 sites in northern India and southern Nepal. In the early 1990s, between 1,870 and 1,895 rhinos were estimated to have been alive. In 2015, a total of 3,555 Indian rhinoceros are estimated to live in the wild.
Characteristics
The Indian rhinoceros has a thick grey-brown skin with pinkish skin folds and a black horn. Its upper legs and shoulders are covered in wart-like bumps. It has very little body hair, aside from eyelashes, ear fringes and tail brush. Males have huge neck folds. Its skull is heavy with a basal length above 60 cm (24 in) and an occiput above 19 cm (7.5 in). Its nasal horn is slightly back-curved with a base of about 18.5 cm (7.3 in) by 12 cm (4.7 in) that rapidly narrows until a smooth, even stem part begins about 55 mm (2.2 in) above base. In captive animals, the horn is frequently worn down to a thick knob.

The Unicorn
The Unicorn is the debut studio album of the Canadian Irish folk music group The Irish Rovers, released in 1967 and topped the charts in 1968.
The title track "The Unicorn", a recording of Shel Silverstein's poem, featured Glen Campbell on lead guitar, and reached #2 in the US Adult Contemporary Charts, #7 in the U.S. Hot 100, and #5 in Ireland. Despite having virtually nothing to do with Ireland or Irish culture, the song remains popular in Irish pubs to this day.
"The Unicorn" song is also included on The Irish Rovers Gems double disk (1996), their 40th Anniversary CD, "40 Years A-Rovin'" (Rover Records, 2005), and their "Home In Ireland" CD and DVD. In 1968 the song was covered by Irish trio The Bachelors.

National park
A national park is a park in use for conservation purposes. Often it is a reserve of natural, semi-natural, or developed land that a sovereign state declares or owns. Although individual nations designate their own national parks differently, there is a common idea: the conservation of 'wild nature' for posterity and as a symbol of national pride. An international organization, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and its World Commission on Protected Areas, has defined "National Park" as its Category II type of protected areas.
While this type of national park had been proposed previously, the United States established the first "public park or pleasuring-ground for the benefit and enjoyment of the people", Yellowstone National Park, in 1872. Although Yellowstone was not officially termed a "national park" in its establishing law, it was always termed such in practice and is widely held to be the first and oldest national park in the world. The first area to use "national park" in its creation legislation was the US's Mackinac Island, in 1875. Australia's Royal National Park, established in 1879, was the world's third official national park. In 1895 ownership of Mackinac Island was transferred to the State of Michigan as a state park and national park status was consequently lost. As a result, Australia's Royal National Park is by some considerations the second oldest national park now in existence.

Kaziranga National Park
Kaziranga National Park , pronounced [kazirɔŋa rastrijɔ udjan]) is a national park in the Golaghat and Nagaon districts of the state of Assam, India. The sanctuary, which hosts two-thirds of the world's great one-horned rhinoceroses is a World Heritage Site. According to the census held in March 2015, which was jointly conducted by the Forest Department of the Government of Assam and some recognized wildlife NGOs, the rhino population in Kaziranga National Park is 2,401. It comprises 1,651 adult rhinos (663 male, 802 are females, 186 unsexed); 294 sub-adults (90 males, 114 females, 90 unsexed); 251 juveniles and 205 cubs.

Toronto Zoo Welcomes Indian Rhino Calf!Toronto Zoo Welcomes Indian Rhino Calf!
The Toronto Zoo's 11 year old female rhinoceros Ashakiran, gave birth to a male calf on Wednesday, February 17th at 9:42 pm. A rhinoceros' gestation period lasts 462-491 days (approximately 16 months) and this is the first surviving calf for Asha and Vishnu, our 12 year old male rhino. As of mid-January, Ashakiran, affectionately known as "Asha", was moved from public viewing to a maternity area where she was monitored closely. While the calf appears healthy and feeding well, the first 30 days will be critical for both mom and calf and Zoo staff will continue to closely monitor them both. Please note that they are not visible to the public at this time. Indian rhinos are listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN with approximately only 2,000 left in the wild. The Toronto Zoo is part of the Species Survival Plan (SSP) for this species and aims to establish and maintain a healthy, genetically diverse populations, and supports conservation efforts in the wild through the Toronto Zoo Endangered Species Reserve Fund. -

Great one-horned Rhinoceros - the largest of Rhino speciesGreat one-horned Rhinoceros - the largest of Rhino species
Rhinocerous seen taking a dip inside a water at Kaziranga National Park, Assam. The Indian rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis), also called the greater one-horned rhinoceros and one-horned Indian rhinoceros, belongs to the Rhinocerotidae family. Listed as a vulnerable species, the large mammal is primarily found in north-eastern India's Assam and in protected areas in the Terai of Nepal, where populations are confined to the riverine grasslands in the foothills of the Himalayas. The Indian rhinoceros once ranged throughout the entire stretch of the Indo-Gangetic Plain, but excessive hunting reduced the natural habitat drastically. Today, about 3,000 rhinos live in the wild, 2,000 of which are found in India's Assam alone. It is the fifth largest land animal. Among terrestrial land mammals native to Asia, the Indian rhinoceros is second in size only to the Asian elephant. This heavily built species is also the second-largest living rhinoceros, behind only the white rhinoceros. Males have an average head and body length of 368--380 cm (12.07--12.47 ft) with a shoulder height of 163--193 cm (5.35--6.33 ft), while females have an average head and body length of 310--340 cm (10.2--11.2 ft) and a shoulder height of 147--173 cm (4.82--5.68 ft). [verification needed] The weights of captive individuals from the Basel Zoo were around 1,600 kg (3,500 lb) on average for the females and around 2,100 kg (4,600 lb) on average for the males. The skull is heavy with a basal length above 60 cm (24 in) and an occiput above 19 cm (7.5 in). The largest sized specimens can range up to 4,000 kg (8,800 lb). The rhino's single horn is present in both males and females, but not on newborn young. The black horn is pure keratin, like human fingernails, and starts to show after about six years. In most adults, the horn reaches a length of about 25 cm (9.8 in), but has been recorded up to 57.2 cm (22.5 in) in length.The nasal horn is slightly back-curved with a base of about 18.5 cm (7.3 in) by 12 cm (4.7 in) that rapidly narrows until a smooth, even stem part begins about 55 mm (2.2 in) above base. In captive animals, the horn is frequently worn down to a thick knob. The Indian rhinoceros has thick, silver-brown skin, which becomes pinkish near the large skin folds that cover its body. Its upper legs and shoulders are covered in wart-like bumps. It has very little body hair, aside from eyelashes, ear fringes and tail brush. Males develop thick neck folds. Kaziranga National Park is a national park in the Golaghat and Nagaon districts of the state of Assam, India. A World Heritage Site, the park hosts two-thirds of the world's Great One-horned Rhinoceroses. Kaziranga boasts the highest density of tigers among protected areas in the world and was declared a Tiger Reserve in 2006. The park is home to large breeding populations of elephants, wild water buffalo, and swamp deer. Kaziranga is recognized as an Important Bird Area by Birdlife International for conservation of avifaunal species. Compared to other protected areas in India, Kaziranga has achieved notable success in wildlife conservation. Located on the edge of the Eastern Himalaya biodiversity hotspot, the park combines high species diversity and visibility. Kaziranga is a vast expanse of tall elephant grass, marshland, and dense tropical moist broadleaf forests, crisscrossed by four major rivers, including the Brahmaputra, and the park includes numerous small bodies of water. Kaziranga has been the theme of several books, songs, and documentaries. The park celebrated its centennial in 2005 after its establishment in 1905 as a reserve forest.

We traveled to the border of India with Nepal, where began the legend of a creature able to attract people from around the world: The Unicorn India.
An incredible animal with a horn on its forehead, which can cure the ills of poor people who share ground with him. We follow the traces of this myth built 20 centuries ago crossing a jungle inhabited by wild creatures among which stands out one, the unicorn and is now known as the Indian rhinoceros, a unique species with enormous power on his forehead.
▶ Documentary "On the Tracks of the Unicorn"
http://pdoc.es/UnicornPL
Along the border between Nepal and India, there runs a strip of rainforests which alternate with the meadows of the lowlands. Open jungle whose floor, rich in pasture, provides food for many species of herbivores.
The presence of the Bengal tiger means the herbivores of the jungle must constantly be on the alert. Danger is ever-present.
But the tiger is not the only giant of these forests. On the intense green ground there is an animal which not even he would dare attack. The gaur, it is the largest wild bovine in the world.
All these biological marvels were already here two thousand years ago, when the first travellers spoke of this land as a magical place, inhabited by fantastic creatures, above all one in particular, the unicorn. The myth lives here, and it is the Indian rhinoceros. Just a few hundred years ago, the Indian rhinoceros grazed on all the flood plains of the Indus, the Ganges and the Brahmaputra, but now it has been reduced to just two national parks: Chitwan in Nepal and Kaziranga in India, 70% of the world population of Indian rhinoceroses live in the Kaziranga National Park.
But our unicorns have a taste for the high grasses of the banks of the swamp, and both in Kaziranga and here in Chitwan, these grasses are also a valuable resource for the human populations living around the edge of the park.
Since 1973, when it was declared a National Park, due to the fact it was the only place in Nepal where rhinoceroses remained, a number of human settlements have been moved, the people transferred to more fertile places without wild herbivores.
When the season arrives, the local inhabitants cross the river, and enter the reserves, armed with their recently-sharpened sickles.
The Indian rhinoceros deposits its faeces, creating over the years large piles which act as olfactory markers or beacons, defining its territory. Gigantic dung heaps that are impossible to ignore even for the least sensitive nose.
Another of the paradoxes of the ancient unicorn is that its horn is not the part of its body the Nepalese most appreciate.
They come to the dung heaps in search of what they swear is an infallible remedy for coughs. For them, the enormous piles of dung are a plentiful supply of the ingredients for the finest tobacco.
Rhinos are essentially solitary animals, but when the males reach sexual maturity, at ten years of age, they fight even the females when they meet. For the time being, Chitwan and Kaziranga are a good home for the rhinoceroses, with around 400 in the Nepalese park and 1,200 in the Indian one. The Indian rhinoceros have changed very little in the last million years. Rhinoceroses are perfectly content half-submerged in their very own vegetable soup, from which they eat while placing virtually no stress on their backbone, which most of the time has to carry the enormous weight of the animal.
In Bangkok, a kilo of Indian rhinoceros horn costs over three million pesetas. And, in a region where poverty is rife, the temptation to poach is enormous. The magic horn which made it a legend almost led to it join the dinosaurs, the dodo and the mammoth in the book of extinct species.
The charges for entering and camping in the park, the price of elephant tours, and lodging and permits, generate increasing income, making the local people more and more convinced that they are fortunate in having a national park on their doorstep.
Perhaps it was all true. Perhaps this is the magic of the unicorn. Night is drawing in around the Himalayas. Mist descends over the jungle where the last Indian rhinoceroses live. For some a green hell, for others the mythological forest inhabited by celestial creatures and unicorns; a place which holds an incredible fascination for all.
That is how the legend was born, with the translucent wings of the bats, perhaps under the effects of a fever, but it was here, by the Brahmaputra. It was all true. This is the home of an incredible animal, with a single horn emerging from its forehead, which can cure all the evils of the poor peoples with whom it shares this land. A being capable of attracting people from all over the world, simply in the hope of seeing it. The legend did not lie, the unicorn exists.

All these biological marvels were already here two thousand years ago, when the first travellers spoke of this land as a magical place, inhabited by fantastic creatures, above all one in particular, the unicorn. Its horn, which they called an “alicornis”, was a sure antidote to any poison, which it immediately detected and neutralised.
The myth lives here, and it is the Indian rhinoceros. Its means of defence was, in fact, imported into Europe until the end of the eighteenth century, as “unicorn horns”, to be used as remedies for a wide range of illnesses, and this belief still continues in traditional Asian medicine. Its leathery skin was also used for defence by men, in the form of shields for the soldiers. This armour plating protects them from attacks by tigers.
The fact that man coveted certain parts of its body brought the Indian rhinoceros to the verge of extinction, and by 1960 barely a hundred remained.
At this time of year, the rhinoceroses and a number of species of deer, such as the sambars and the chitals, spend many hours here. Just a few hundred years ago, the Indian rhinoceros grazed on all the flood plains of the Indus, the Ganges and the Brahmaputra, but now it has been reduced to just two national parks: Chitwan in Nepal and Kaziranga in India.
70% of the world population of Indian rhinoceroses live in the Kaziranga National Park, ; for them, and for the Asian elephants, water provides a refuge from the heat, and a place in which their enormous body weight is a little easier to bear.
Another of the treasures of these jungles is the only animal capable of taking advantage of the meat of herbivores as large as the great buffalos. The presence of the tiger is the cause of one of the greatest problems – the coexistence of the National Parks and the people who live close by them.

The Toronto Zoo's 11 year old female rhinoceros Ashakiran, gave birth to a male calf on Wednesday, February 17th at 9:42 pm.
A rhinoceros' gestation period lasts 462-491 days (approximately 16 months) and this is the first surviving calf for Asha and Vishnu, our 12 year old male rhino. As of mid-January, Ashakiran, affectionately known as "Asha", was moved from public viewing to a maternity area where she was monitored closely. While the calf appears healthy and feeding well, the first 30 days will be critical for both mom and calf and Zoo staff will continue to closely monitor them both. Please note that they are not visible to the public at this time.
Indian rhinos are listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN with approximately only 2,000 left in the wild. The Toronto Zoo is part of the Species Survival Plan (SSP) for this species and aims to establish and maintain a healthy, genetically diverse populations, and supports conservation efforts in the wild through the Toronto Zoo Endangered Species Reserve Fund.

Rhinocerous seen taking a dip inside a water at Kaziranga National Park, Assam.
The Indian rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis), also called the greater one-horned rhinoceros and one-horned Indian rhinoceros, belongs to the Rhinocerotidae family. Listed as a vulnerable species, the large mammal is primarily found in north-eastern India's Assam and in protected areas in the Terai of Nepal, where populations are confined to the riverine grasslands in the foothills of the Himalayas.
The Indian rhinoceros once ranged throughout the entire stretch of the Indo-Gangetic Plain, but excessive hunting reduced the natural habitat drastically. Today, about 3,000 rhinos live in the wild, 2,000 of which are found in India's Assam alone.
It is the fifth largest land animal.
Among terrestrial land mammals native to Asia, the Indian rhinoceros is second in size only to the Asian elephant. This heavily built species is also the second-largest living rhinoceros, behind only the white rhinoceros. Males have an average head and body length of 368--380 cm (12.07--12.47 ft) with a shoulder height of 163--193 cm (5.35--6.33 ft), while females have an average head and body length of 310--340 cm (10.2--11.2 ft) and a shoulder height of 147--173 cm (4.82--5.68 ft). [verification needed] The weights of captive individuals from the Basel Zoo were around 1,600 kg (3,500 lb) on average for the females and around 2,100 kg (4,600 lb) on average for the males. The skull is heavy with a basal length above 60 cm (24 in) and an occiput above 19 cm (7.5 in).
The largest sized specimens can range up to 4,000 kg (8,800 lb).
The rhino's single horn is present in both males and females, but not on newborn young. The black horn is pure keratin, like human fingernails, and starts to show after about six years. In most adults, the horn reaches a length of about 25 cm (9.8 in), but has been recorded up to 57.2 cm (22.5 in) in length.The nasal horn is slightly back-curved with a base of about 18.5 cm (7.3 in) by 12 cm (4.7 in) that rapidly narrows until a smooth, even stem part begins about 55 mm (2.2 in) above base. In captive animals, the horn is frequently worn down to a thick knob.
The Indian rhinoceros has thick, silver-brown skin, which becomes pinkish near the large skin folds that cover its body. Its upper legs and shoulders are covered in wart-like bumps. It has very little body hair, aside from eyelashes, ear fringes and tail brush. Males develop thick neck folds.
Kaziranga National Park is a national park in the Golaghat and Nagaon districts of the state of Assam, India. A World Heritage Site, the park hosts two-thirds of the world's Great One-horned Rhinoceroses. Kaziranga boasts the highest density of tigers among protected areas in the world and was declared a Tiger Reserve in 2006. The park is home to large breeding populations of elephants, wild water buffalo, and swamp deer. Kaziranga is recognized as an Important Bird Area by Birdlife International for conservation of avifaunal species. Compared to other protected areas in India, Kaziranga has achieved notable success in wildlife conservation. Located on the edge of the Eastern Himalaya biodiversity hotspot, the park combines high species diversity and visibility.
Kaziranga is a vast expanse of tall elephant grass, marshland, and dense tropical moist broadleaf forests, crisscrossed by four major rivers, including the Brahmaputra, and the park includes numerous small bodies of water. Kaziranga has been the theme of several books, songs, and documentaries. The park celebrated its centennial in 2005 after its establishment in 1905 as a reserve forest.

Rhino Charging Down Indian Highway
A gripping video shows a rhino charging furiously down a highway in the Indian state of Assam. The massive beast is seen racing on the road, at great pace, forcing all incoming traffic to do a u-turn. Debashish Goswami followed the angry rhino in his car, recording the wild chase on his mobile phone. “I was returning from Guwahati (the state capital) with my wife when I saw this rhino charging down the road. I decided to film this once in a lifetime moment,” said Goswami, who has a government job.

A rhinoceros' gestation period lasts 462-491 days (approximately 16 months) and this is the first surviving calf for Asha and Vishnu, our 12 year old male rhino. As of mid-January, Ashakiran, affectionately known as "Asha", was moved from public viewing to a maternity area where she was monitored closely. While the calf appears healthy and feeding well, the first 30 days will be critical for both mom and calf and Zoo staff will continue to closely monitor them both.

We traveled to the border of India with Nepal, where began the legend of a creature able to attract people from around the world: The Unicorn India.
An incredible animal with a horn on its forehead, which can cure the ills of poor people who share ground with him. We follow the traces of this myth built 20 centuries ago crossing a jungle inhabited by wild creatures among which stands out one, the unicorn and is now known as the Indian rhinoceros, a unique species with enormous power on his forehead.
▶ Documentary "On the Tracks of the Unicorn"
http://pdoc.es/UnicornPL
Along the border between Nepal and India, there runs a strip of rainforests which alternate with the meadows of the lowlands. Open jungle whose floor, rich in pasture, provides food for many species of herbivores.
The presence of the Bengal tiger means the herbivores of the jungle must constantly be on the alert. Danger is ever-present.
But the tiger is not the only giant of these forests. On the intense green ground there is an animal which not even he would dare attack. The gaur, it is the largest wild bovine in the world.
All these biological marvels were already here two thousand years ago, when the first travellers spoke of this land as a magical place, inhabited by fantastic creatures, above all one in particular, the unicorn. The myth lives here, and it is the Indian rhinoceros. Just a few hundred years ago, the Indian rhinoceros grazed on all the flood plains of the Indus, the Ganges and the Brahmaputra, but now it has been reduced to just two national parks: Chitwan in Nepal and Kaziranga in India, 70% of the world population of Indian rhinoceroses live in the Kaziranga National Park.
But our unicorns have a taste for the high grasses of the banks of the swamp, and both in Kaziranga and here in Chitwan, these grasses are also a valuable resource for the human populations living around the edge of the park.
Since 1973, when it was declared a National Park, due to the fact it was the only place in Nepal where rhinoceroses remained, a number of human settlements have been moved, the people transferred to more fertile places without wild herbivores.
When the season arrives, the local inhabitants cross the river, and enter the reserves, armed with their recently-sharpened sickles.
The Indian rhinoceros deposits its faeces, creating over the years large piles which act as olfactory markers or beacons, defining its territory. Gigantic dung heaps that are impossible to ignore even for the least sensitive nose.
Another of the paradoxes of the ancient unicorn is that its horn is not the part of its body the Nepalese most appreciate.
They come to the dung heaps in search of what they swear is an infallible remedy for coughs. For them, the enormous piles of dung are a plentiful supply of the ingredients for the finest tobacco.
Rhinos are essentially solitary animals, but when the males reach sexual maturity, at ten years of age, they fight even the females when they meet. For the time being, Chitwan and Kaziranga are a good home for the rhinoceroses, with around 400 in the Nepalese park and 1,200 in the Indian one. The Indian rhinoceros have changed very little in the last million years. Rhinoceroses are perfectly content half-submerged in their very own vegetable soup, from which they eat while placing virtually no stress on their backbone, which most of the time has to carry the enormous weight of the animal.
In Bangkok, a kilo of Indian rhinoceros horn costs over three million pesetas. And, in a region where poverty is rife, the temptation to poach is enormous. The magic horn which made it a legend almost led to it join the dinosaurs, the dodo and the mammoth in the book of extinct species.
The charges for entering and camping in the park, the price of elephant tours, and lodging and permits, generate increasing income, making the local people more and more convinced that they are fortunate in having a national park on their doorstep.
Perhaps it was all true. Perhaps this is the magic of the unicorn. Night is drawing in around the Himalayas. Mist descends over the jungle where the last Indian rhinoceroses live. For some a green hell, for others the mythological forest inhabited by celestial creatures and unicorns; a place which holds an incredible fascination for all.
That is how the legend was born, with the translucent wings of the bats, perhaps under the effects of a fever, but it was here, by the Brahmaputra. It was all true. This is the home of an incredible animal, with a single horn emerging from its forehead, which can cure all the evils of the poor peoples with whom it shares this land. A being capable of attracting people from all over the world, simply in the hope of seeing it. The legend did not lie, the unicorn exists.

A gripping video shows a rhino charging furiously down a highway in the Indian state of Assam.
The massive beast is seen racing on the road, at great pace, forcing all incoming traffic to do a u-turn.
Debashish Goswami followed the angry rhino in his car, recording the wild chase on his mobile phone.
“I was returning from Guwahati (the state capital) with my wife when I saw this rhino charging down the road. I decided to film this once in a lifetime moment,” said Goswami, who has a government job.

We traveled to the border of India with Nepal, where began the legend of a creature able to attract people from around the world:
The Unicorn of India.
An incredible animal with a horn on its forehead, which can cure the ills of poor people who share ground with him.
We follow the traces of this myth built 20 centuries ago crossing a jungle inhabited by wild creatures among which stands out one, the unicorn and is now known as the Indian rhinoceros, a unique species with enormous power on his forehead.

▶ Documentary "On the Tracks of the Unicorn"
http://pdoc.es/UnicornPL
All these biological marvels were already here two thousand years ago, when the first travellers spoke of this land as a magical place, inhabited by fantastic creatures, above all one in particular, the unicorn. Its horn, which they called an “alicornis”, was a sure antidote to any poison, which it immediately detected and neutralised.
The myth lives here, and it is the Indian rhinoceros. Its means of defence was, in fact, imported into Europe until the end of the eighteenth century, as “unicorn horns”, to be used as remedies for a wide range of illnesses, and this belief still continues in traditional Asian medicine. Its leathery skin was also used for defence by men, in the form of shields for the soldiers. This armour plating protects them from attacks by tigers.
The fact that man coveted certain parts of its body brought the Indian rhinoceros to the verge of extinction, and by 1960 barely a hundred remained.
At this time of year, the rhinoceroses and a number of species of deer, such as the sambars and the chitals, spend many hours here. Just a few hundred years ago, the Indian rhinoceros grazed on all the flood plains of the Indus, the Ganges and the Brahmaputra, but now it has been reduced to just two national parks: Chitwan in Nepal and Kaziranga in India.
70% of the world population of Indian rhinoceroses live in the Kaziranga National Park, ; for them, and for the Asian elephants, water provides a refuge from the heat, and a place in which their enormous body weight is a little easier to bear.
Another of the treasures of these jungles is the only animal capable of taking advantage of the meat of herbivores as large as the great buffalos. The presence of the tiger is the cause of one of the greatest problems – the coexistence of the National Parks and the people who live close by them.

The Toronto Zoo's 11 year old female rhinoceros Ashakiran, gave birth to a male calf on Wednesday, February 17th at 9:42 pm.
A rhinoceros' gestation period lasts 462-491 days (approximately 16 months) and this is the first surviving calf for Asha and Vishnu, our 12 year old male rhino. As of mid-January, Ashakiran, affectionately known as "Asha", was moved from public viewing to a maternity area where she was monitored closely. While the calf appears healthy and feeding well, the first 30 days will be critical for both mom and calf and Zoo staff will continue to closely monitor them both. Please note that they are not visible to the public at this time.
Indian rhinos are listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN with approximately only 2,000 left in the wild. The Toronto Zoo is part of the Species Survival Plan (SSP) for this species and aims to establish and maintain a healthy, genetically diverse populations, and supports conservation efforts in the wild through the Toronto Zoo Endangered Species Reserve Fund.

Rhinocerous seen taking a dip inside a water at Kaziranga National Park, Assam.
The Indian rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis), also called the greater one-horned rhinoceros and one-horned Indian rhinoceros, belongs to the Rhinocerotidae family. Listed as a vulnerable species, the large mammal is primarily found in north-eastern India's Assam and in protected areas in the Terai of Nepal, where populations are confined to the riverine grasslands in the foothills of the Himalayas.
The Indian rhinoceros once ranged throughout the entire stretch of the Indo-Gangetic Plain, but excessive hunting reduced the natural habitat drastically. Today, about 3,000 rhinos live in the wild, 2,000 of which are found in India's Assam alone.
It is the fifth largest land animal.
Among terrestrial land mammals native to Asia, the Indian rhinoceros is second in size only to the Asian elephant. This heavily built species is also the second-largest living rhinoceros, behind only the white rhinoceros. Males have an average head and body length of 368--380 cm (12.07--12.47 ft) with a shoulder height of 163--193 cm (5.35--6.33 ft), while females have an average head and body length of 310--340 cm (10.2--11.2 ft) and a shoulder height of 147--173 cm (4.82--5.68 ft). [verification needed] The weights of captive individuals from the Basel Zoo were around 1,600 kg (3,500 lb) on average for the females and around 2,100 kg (4,600 lb) on average for the males. The skull is heavy with a basal length above 60 cm (24 in) and an occiput above 19 cm (7.5 in).
The largest sized specimens can range up to 4,000 kg (8,800 lb).
The rhino's single horn is present in both males and females, but not on newborn young. The black horn is pure keratin, like human fingernails, and starts to show after about six years. In most adults, the horn reaches a length of about 25 cm (9.8 in), but has been recorded up to 57.2 cm (22.5 in) in length.The nasal horn is slightly back-curved with a base of about 18.5 cm (7.3 in) by 12 cm (4.7 in) that rapidly narrows until a smooth, even stem part begins about 55 mm (2.2 in) above base. In captive animals, the horn is frequently worn down to a thick knob.
The Indian rhinoceros has thick, silver-brown skin, which becomes pinkish near the large skin folds that cover its body. Its upper legs and shoulders are covered in wart-like bumps. It has very little body hair, aside from eyelashes, ear fringes and tail brush. Males develop thick neck folds.
Kaziranga National Park is a national park in the Golaghat and Nagaon districts of the state of Assam, India. A World Heritage Site, the park hosts two-thirds of the world's Great One-horned Rhinoceroses. Kaziranga boasts the highest density of tigers among protected areas in the world and was declared a Tiger Reserve in 2006. The park is home to large breeding populations of elephants, wild water buffalo, and swamp deer. Kaziranga is recognized as an Important Bird Area by Birdlife International for conservation of avifaunal species. Compared to other protected areas in India, Kaziranga has achieved notable success in wildlife conservation. Located on the edge of the Eastern Himalaya biodiversity hotspot, the park combines high species diversity and visibility.
Kaziranga is a vast expanse of tall elephant grass, marshland, and dense tropical moist broadleaf forests, crisscrossed by four major rivers, including the Brahmaputra, and the park includes numerous small bodies of water. Kaziranga has been the theme of several books, songs, and documentaries. The park celebrated its centennial in 2005 after its establishment in 1905 as a reserve forest.

Monsoon India's God Of Life
Monsoon India s god of life is a fascinating chronicle of how the wild animals of India cope with the hardship of summer and how the arrival of the monsoon transforms their lives and the land they live in. The monsoon is a great benefactor that replenishes water and rejuvenates the land. But sometimes it can also overwhelm with its abundance, unleashing floods that cause death and destruction. In India s far north east, the rare great Indian rhinoceros lives on a flood plain that swings between the extremes of too little water... and too much. Lying to the south of the great Brahmaputra river, the rhino s home is literally reshaped by the force of every monsoon. As the summer advances, and the waterholes shrink, the normally solitary rhinos are forced together into tiny wallows to escape t...

Click here to watch great FREE Movies & TV: http://filmrise.com For more than sixty million years, the rhinoceros has roamed the earth. It is a stubborn "tank" of a beast whose nose mounted weaponry and armor of thick skin are links to its prehistoric past. Once hundreds of thousands roamed freely in the forests and plains of Africa and Asia, but in just the past twenty years, poachers seeking the Rhino's horn have hunted, trapped and killed eighty-five percent of the wild population. By the end of the century, the wild Rhino may be gone forever. This thoughtful film takes you behind the battle lines in Africa, as radical solutions are employed in an effort to protect the remaining population.

Crocodiles vs hippo, Wildebeest Vs Huge - Wild animals fight to death
Crocodiles vs hippo, Wildebeest Vs Huge - Wild animals fight to death Crocodiles (subfamily Crocodylinae) or true crocodiles are large aquatic reptiles that live throughout the tropics in Africa, Asia, the Americas and Australia. Crocodylinae, all of whose members are considered true crocodiles, is classified as a biological subfamily. A broader sense of the term crocodile, Crocodylidae that includes Tomistoma, is not used in this article. The term crocodile here applies only to the species within the subfamily of Crocodylinae. The term is sometimes used even more loosely to include all extant members of the order Crocodilia, which includes Tomistoma, the alligators and caimans (family Alligatoridae), the gharials (family Gavialidae), and all other living and fossil Crocodylomorpha.

We traveled to the border of India with Nepal, where began the legend of a creature able to attract people from around the world: The Unicorn India.
An incredible animal with a horn on its forehead, which can cure the ills of poor people who share ground with him. We follow the traces of this myth built 20 centuries ago crossing a jungle inhabited by wild creatures among which stands out one, the unicorn and is now known as the Indian rhinoceros, a unique species with enormous power on his forehead.
▶ Documentary "On the Tracks of the Unicorn"
http://pdoc.es/UnicornPL
Along the border between Nepal and India, there runs a strip of rainforests which alternate with the meadows of the lowlands. Open jungle whose floor, rich in pasture, provides food for many species of herbivores.
The presence of the Bengal tiger means the herbivores of the jungle must constantly be on the alert. Danger is ever-present.
But the tiger is not the only giant of these forests. On the intense green ground there is an animal which not even he would dare attack. The gaur, it is the largest wild bovine in the world.
All these biological marvels were already here two thousand years ago, when the first travellers spoke of this land as a magical place, inhabited by fantastic creatures, above all one in particular, the unicorn. The myth lives here, and it is the Indian rhinoceros. Just a few hundred years ago, the Indian rhinoceros grazed on all the flood plains of the Indus, the Ganges and the Brahmaputra, but now it has been reduced to just two national parks: Chitwan in Nepal and Kaziranga in India, 70% of the world population of Indian rhinoceroses live in the Kaziranga National Park.
But our unicorns have a taste for the high grasses of the banks of the swamp, and both in Kaziranga and here in Chitwan, these grasses are also a valuable resource for the human populations living around the edge of the park.
Since 1973, when it was declared a National Park, due to the fact it was the only place in Nepal where rhinoceroses remained, a number of human settlements have been moved, the people transferred to more fertile places without wild herbivores.
When the season arrives, the local inhabitants cross the river, and enter the reserves, armed with their recently-sharpened sickles.
The Indian rhinoceros deposits its faeces, creating over the years large piles which act as olfactory markers or beacons, defining its territory. Gigantic dung heaps that are impossible to ignore even for the least sensitive nose.
Another of the paradoxes of the ancient unicorn is that its horn is not the part of its body the Nepalese most appreciate.
They come to the dung heaps in search of what they swear is an infallible remedy for coughs. For them, the enormous piles of dung are a plentiful supply of the ingredients for the finest tobacco.
Rhinos are essentially solitary animals, but when the males reach sexual maturity, at ten years of age, they fight even the females when they meet. For the time being, Chitwan and Kaziranga are a good home for the rhinoceroses, with around 400 in the Nepalese park and 1,200 in the Indian one. The Indian rhinoceros have changed very little in the last million years. Rhinoceroses are perfectly content half-submerged in their very own vegetable soup, from which they eat while placing virtually no stress on their backbone, which most of the time has to carry the enormous weight of the animal.
In Bangkok, a kilo of Indian rhinoceros horn costs over three million pesetas. And, in a region where poverty is rife, the temptation to poach is enormous. The magic horn which made it a legend almost led to it join the dinosaurs, the dodo and the mammoth in the book of extinct species.
The charges for entering and camping in the park, the price of elephant tours, and lodging and permits, generate increasing income, making the local people more and more convinced that they are fortunate in having a national park on their doorstep.
Perhaps it was all true. Perhaps this is the magic of the unicorn. Night is drawing in around the Himalayas. Mist descends over the jungle where the last Indian rhinoceroses live. For some a green hell, for others the mythological forest inhabited by celestial creatures and unicorns; a place which holds an incredible fascination for all.
That is how the legend was born, with the translucent wings of the bats, perhaps under the effects of a fever, but it was here, by the Brahmaputra. It was all true. This is the home of an incredible animal, with a single horn emerging from its forehead, which can cure all the evils of the poor peoples with whom it shares this land. A being capable of attracting people from all over the world, simply in the hope of seeing it. The legend did not lie, the unicorn exists.

Monsoon India s god of life is a fascinating chronicle of how the wild animals of India cope with the hardship of summer and how the arrival of the monsoon transforms their lives and the land they live in. The monsoon is a great benefactor that replenishes water and rejuvenates the land. But sometimes it can also overwhelm with its abundance, unleashing floods that cause death and destruction. In India s far north east, the rare great Indian rhinoceros lives on a flood plain that swings between the extremes of too little water... and too much. Lying to the south of the great Brahmaputra river, the rhino s home is literally reshaped by the force of every monsoon. As the summer advances, and the waterholes shrink, the normally solitary rhinos are forced together into tiny wallows to escape the heat. The days drag on with little respite and tempers flare as the great beasts jostle for space. When the summer monsoon finally arrives after weeks of anticipation, it makes its first landfall not in the north east, but at the tip of southern India. In the fire-ravaged forests of south India elephants squeal and trumpet when the first thunder showers pelt down. As the waves of dark cloud sweep further inland, they release most of their load over the rainforest-covered slopes of the Western Ghats mountains, drenching the forest floor and awakening all manner of life. Travancore tortoises emerge from hiding and the males battle it out for mating rights. Brightly coloured giant centipedes prowl the forest floor in search of food, and up in the canopy lion-tailed macaques enjoy the special fruits of the monsoon. On the misty, windswept mountain tops, the Nilgiri tahr, a species of rare wild goat, prepare for their annual rut. When the females come into heat they are chased relentlessly by the males, until the last female in the herd has mated. The monsoon does not arrive everywhere in India at once. While the monsoon rains lash south-west India, north India continues to reel under a heat wave. Temperatures in Rajasthan soar above 120 F. The heat drives the animals to rapidly shrinking water holes. Rhesus macaques dive headlong into the water and tigers soak in forest pools. But not everyone can afford to play or relax. Despite the crippling heat a tigress with two large cubs is constantly on the hunt for food. The dry, open forest makes concealment difficult and stalking almost impossible, but along the shores of an enchanting lake, where prey animals gather to feed and drink, there is plenty of food to be had. The tigress must use all her cunning if her cubs are to survive. Distant thunder and a smell of rain drives courting peacocks into a frenzy, and under cover of darkness, the monsoon arrives in Rajasthan. Deep underground, a large female python sits tightly coiled around her clutch of eggs. She laid them sixty days ago to hatch with the monsoon. Now, with the arrival of the rains, her young will have no trouble fending for themselves.

A morning view of Kaziranga National Park, with Rhino, Sambhar Deer, Wild Boar in the grasslands of the park.
Kaziranga National Park is a national park in the Golaghat and Nagaon districts of the state of Assam, India. A World Heritage Site, the park hosts two-thirds of the world's Great One-horned Rhinoceroses. Kaziranga boasts the highest density of tigers among protected areas in the world and was declared a Tiger Reserve in 2006. The park is home to large breeding populations of elephants, wild water buffalo, and swamp deer. Kaziranga is recognized as an Important Bird Area by Birdlife International for conservation of avifaunal species. Compared to other protected areas in India, Kaziranga has achieved notable success in wildlife conservation. Located on the edge of the Eastern Himalaya biodiversity hotspot, the park combines high species diversity and visibility.
Kaziranga is a vast expanse of tall elephant grass, marshland, and dense tropical moist broadleaf forests, crisscrossed by four major rivers, including the Brahmaputra, and the park includes numerous small bodies of water. Kaziranga has been the theme of several books, songs, and documentaries. The park celebrated its centennial in 2005 after its establishment in 1905 as a reserve forest.

For more than sixty million years, the rhinoceros has roamed the earth. It is a stubborn "tank" of a beast whose nose mounted weaponry and armor of thick skin are links to its prehistoric past. Once hundreds of thousands roamed freely in the forests and plains of Africa and Asia, but in just the past twenty years, poachers seeking the Rhino's horn have hunted, trapped and killed eighty-five percent of the wild population. By the end of the century, the wild Rhino may be gone forever.
This thoughtful film takes you behind the battle lines in Africa, as radical solutions are employed in an effort to protect the remaining population. It will also take you to nature reserves around the globe as scientists strive to understand the animal's basic biology and reproduction. The race is on to save the Rhinoceros, as we look at the forces that have caused their decline, and uncover the courageous efforts of those who hope to save them.
As seen on ABC. Narrated by James Brolin.

Crocodiles vs hippo, Wildebeest Vs Huge - Wild animals fight to death
Crocodiles (subfamily Crocodylinae) or true crocodiles are large aquatic reptiles that live throughout the tropics in Africa, Asia, the Americas and Australia. Crocodylinae, all of whose members are considered true crocodiles, is classified as a biological subfamily. A broader sense of the term crocodile, Crocodylidae that includes Tomistoma, is not used in this article. The term crocodile here applies only to the species within the subfamily of Crocodylinae. The term is sometimes used even more loosely to include all extant members of the order Crocodilia, which includes Tomistoma, the alligators and caimans (family Alligatoridae), the gharials (family Gavialidae), and all other living and fossil Crocodylomorpha.
Although they appear to be similar to the untrained eye, crocodiles, alligators and the gharial belong to separate biological families. The gharial having a narrow snout is easier to distinguish, while morphological differences are more difficult to spot in crocodiles and alligators. The most obvious external differences are visible in the head with crocodiles having narrower and longer heads, with a more V-shaped than a U-shaped snout compared to alligators and caimans. Another obvious trait is that the upper and lower jaws of the crocodiles are the same width, and the teeth in the lower jaw Crocodiles vs hippo, Wildebeest Vs Huge - Wild animals fight to death fall along the edge or outside the upper jaw when the mouth is closed; therefore, all teeth are visible unlike an alligator; which possesses small depressions in the upper jaw, into which the lower teeth fit. Also, when the crocodile's mouth is closed, the large fourth tooth in the lower jaw fits into a constriction in the upper jaw. For hard-to-distinguish specimens, the protruding tooth is the most reliable feature to define the family that the species belongs to.[1] Crocodiles have more webbing on the toes of the hind feet and can better tolerate saltwater due to specialized salt glands for filtering out salt, which are present but non-functioning in alligators. Another trait that separates crocodiles from other crocodilians is their much higher levels of aggressionThe common hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius), or hippo, is a large, Crocodiles vs hippo, Wildebeest Vs Huge - Wild animals fight to death mostly herbivorous mammal in sub-Saharan Africa, and one of only two extant species in the family Hippopotamidae, the other being the pygmy hippopotamus (Choeropsis liberiensis or Hexaprotodon liberiensis). The name comes from the ancient Greek for "river horse" (ἱπποπόταμος). After the elephant and rhinoceros, the common hippopotamus is the third-largest type of land mammal and the heaviest extant artiodactyl. Despite their physical resemblance to pigs and other terrestrial even-toed Crocodiles vs hippo, Wildebeest Vs Huge - Wild animals fight to death ungulates, the closest living relatives of the Hippopotamidae are cetaceans (whales, dolphins, porpoises, etc.) from which they diverged about 55 million years ago. The common ancestor of whales and hippos split from other even-toed ungulates around 60 million years ago. The earliest known hippopotamus fossils, belonging to the genus Kenyapotamus in Africa, date to around 16 million years ago.Crocodiles vs hippo, Wildebeest Vs Huge - Wild animals fight to death
Common hippos are recognisable by their barrel-shaped torsos, wide-opening mouths revealing large canine tusks, nearly hairless bodies, columnar-like legs and large size; adults average 1,500 kg (3,310 lb) and 1,300 kg (2,870 lb) for males and femalesCrocodiles vs hippo, Wildebeest Vs Huge - Wild animals fight to death respectively, making them the largest species of land mammal after the three species of elephant and the white and Indian rhinoceros. Despite its stocky shape and short legs, it is capable of running 30 km/h (19 mph) over short distances. The hippopotamus is a highly aggressive and unpredictable animal and is ranked among the most dangerous animals in Africa.[3] Nevertheless, they are still threatened by habitat loss and poaching for their meat and ivory canine teeth.Crocodiles vs hippo, Wildebeest Vs Huge - Wild animals fight to death

For hard-to-distinguish specimens, the protruding tooth is the most reliable feature to define the family that the species belongs to.[1] Crocodiles have more webbing on the toes of the hind feet and can better tolerate saltwater due to specialized salt glands for filtering out salt, which are present but non-functioning in alligators.

The common hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius), or hippo, is a large, mostly herbivorous mammal in sub-Saharan Africa, and one of only two extant species in the family Hippopotamidae, the other being the pygmy hippopotamus (Choeropsis liberiensis or Hexaprotodon liberiensis). The name comes from the ancient Greek for "river horse" (ἱπποπόταμος). After the elephant and rhinoceros, the common hippopotamus is the third-largest type of land mammal and the heaviest extant artiodactyl.

The earliest known hippopotamus fossils, belonging to the genus Kenyapotamus in Africa, date to around 16 million years ago.
Common hippos are recognisable by their barrel-shaped torsos, wide-opening mouths revealing large canine tusks, nearly hairless bodies, columnar-like legs and large size; adults average 1,500 kg (3,300 lb) and 1,300 kg (2,900 lb) for males and females respectively, making them the largest species of land mammal after the three species of elephants and the white and Indian rhinoceros. Despite its stocky shape and short legs, it is capable of running 30 km/h (19 mph) over short distances. The hippopotamus is a highly aggressive and unpredictable animal and is ranked among the most dangerous animals in Africa.[3] Nevertheless, they are still threatened by habitat loss and poaching for their meat and ivory canine teeth.
The common hippopotamus is semiaquatic, inhabiting rivers, lakes and mangrove swamps, where territorial bulls preside over a stretch of river and groups of five to thirty females and young. During the day, they remain cool by staying in the water or mud; reproduction and childbirth both occur in water. They emerge at dusk to graze on grasses. While hippopotamuses rest near each other in the water, grazing is a solitary activity and hippos are not territorial on land.

Gorumara was a reserve forest since 1895. The park was declared a Wildlife Sanctuary in 1949, on account of its breeding population of Indian rhinoceros. It was declared an Indian National Park on January 31, 1994
This National Park in northern West Bengal, India. Located in the Dooars or Terai region of the Himalayan foothills, it is a medium-sized park with grasslands and forests. It is primarily known for its population of Indian rhinoceros. The park is located on the bank of rivers Murti and Raidak and has vegetation of riverine grasslands interspersed with savannah woodlands. Much of the forest is moist deciduous and sal (shorea robusta) is the most common and valuable tree. Teak, simul, siris, khair are also found here.
