[Assam] Two rhinos killed

[Jyotirmoy Sharma]

It's really depressing to see a dead animal being ruthlessly  
butchered by money hungry men. Pity we belong to  a poor country, a  
poor state... where human lives are not respected. Protecting animals  
is probably way down the list of priorities.
The rate at which rhinoes are getting killed in Assam, wonder how  
long before we see it only in pics.
Nature had given Assam unique beauty. Unfortunately it's being  
destroyed.
