Baby Rhino Marks a New Milestone for Indian Park
The healthy, female rhinoceros calf born in Manas National Park in India marked a new milestone in the efforts to reintroduce rhinos to the region.
"This is the first calf born in the wild in India from a rhino that had been hand-raised, rehabilitated, and released to the wild," said Azzedine Downes, president and CEO of the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW).

This was the third elephant move since 2007 and another milestone in the Elephant Re-Introduction Project being attempted for the first time in India's history.
