The Park’s office said that one rhino was found dead at the Balmiki Tiger Reserve area in India on Monday after it was swept away by the Narayani river. CNP’s Information Officer, Ashok Ram, said that information has been received from the Balmiki Tiger Reserve that the animal died after half an hour of being washed away by the Narayani via the Gandak Barrage.

Another rhino has been found dead at the edge of the way east of the Number 1 view tower at Bankatta Bangachhiya under the CNP’s Sauraha sector. The 12 year old male rhino was found dead with an injured head. It is suspected that the animal might have died after falling sick following a clash with another rhino.
