Divisional Forest Officer of KNP, Suvashish Das, said to the media that the forest heard gunshots at around 1:00 AM, and quickly launched the search operation.<\/p>\n<p>When on the search operation, an encounter took place between forest staffs and poachers in the dense forest of Burapahar. No one was killed or injured in the encounter.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Poachers shot 32 rounds of bullets from an AK-47 rifle in two seconds at the rhino and fled the spot. Our staff found the bullet-riddled rhino and 32 rounds of blank cartridges. The horn of the rhino, however, was found intact,&#8221; said Kaziranga director S N Singh.<\/p>\n<p>The search team immediately took the rhino to veterinary doctors to treat the animal, but it succumbed to bullet injuries.<\/p>\n<p>Kaziranga National Park News Desk&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><b>You may also like to read<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kaziranga-national-park.com\/one-horned-rhino.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">All about Great Indian One-Horned Rhinoceros<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kaziranga-national-park.com\/hotels-resorts-kaziranga.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Top Rated Accomodation Options in Kaziranga<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kaziranga-national-park.com\/wildlife-safari-in-kaziranga-national-park.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Kaziranga Safari Timing Information<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kaziranga-national-park.com\/tourist-places-near-kaziranga.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">Top Tourist Attractions near Kaziranga<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kaziranga-national-park.com\/blog\/top-reasons-visit-kaziranga\/\" target=\"_blank\">Why Kaziranga is a Must Visit for Every Wildlife Lover<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Wednesday (15th November 2016), another rhino in Kaziranga became the target of the poachers; taking the toll to 16 this year.
