Another rhino killed in Assam, horn missing

“The carcass of a female rhino was recovered on Thursday and the horn was missing,” a forest official said. The poachers seem to have killed the rhino on June 27.  The forest guards reportedly heard gunshots in the park that day.

 But a search operation revealed nothing then. This is the 10th one-horned rhino to be killed in Assam since January and the third after a BJP-led government took charge in the state. The poachers killed two rhinos at the Kaziranga National Park earlier this month.
