Assam reports zero rhino poaching in 2025

In 2025, Assam, a state in India, had no cases of rhino poaching.

The Chief Minister, Himanta Biswa Sarma, shared this good news.

He said that strong protection measures over the past five years helped achieve this.

Additionally, a rare wild dog called a dhole was seen after 35 years in a place called the Amguri corridor.

A golden tiger, which is very rare, was also spotted in the Kaziranga National Park.

This is the second time in recent years that Assam has reported zero rhino poaching, making it a proud moment for the state.
