HAND-REARED RHINOS MOVED TO MANAS
The two rhinos moved today - Gopal and Hari, both male, were less than a month old when they were found alone on 13th March and 21st August of 2009 at Baruntika and Haldhibari areas of Kaziranga respectively. They were separated from their mother; the reason for separation is not known. They were admitted at CWRC for rehabilitation. Following the proven rhino rehabilitation protocol of CWRC, they were hand-reared at CWRC. Both are about four years old now. Apart from Gopal and Hari, and the five already released in Manas, there are five additional calves currently being hand-reared by IFAW-WTI.
