Another great picture you could add to the Rhino Mission if you like. Today's blog is about the Rhino's plight in celebration of World Rhino Day: http://blog.projectnoah.org/post/3204789...

The Indian rhinoceros once ranged throughout the entire stretch of the Indo-Gangetic Plain but excessive hunting reduced their natural habitat drastically. Today, about 3,000 rhinos live in the wild, 2,000 of which are found in India's Assam alone.
I have never seen an Indian Rhinoceros. Amazing picture!
