The situation got worst by continuous flooding, that submerged all the 111 highlands inside the national park, which used to be the safe grounds for the animals to rescue them from the floodwaters.

Based on the annual plan of operations submitted by tiger reserves, the government provides funds to the park, through the National Tiger Conservation Authority, under the centrally sponsored \u2018Project Tiger\u2019 scheme. Those funds are used for various activities, like the measures that needed to be taken to address the flood situations such as creation of highlands, preventive structures against erosion and desiltation, acquiring boats for the rescue of animals, building of road networks, etc. The park has suffered the damages of over Rs. 7 crore, that would now needs to be make up for, with these funds.<\/p>\n

Though, this time not a single one-horned rhino was poached during the flood season so far. As a security measure, to guard the animals against the poachers, two drones were flown, that can fly at heights of 2,000 feet and capture visuals in a radius of five km. Even the animal casualty is also less this year as compared to last year when about 500 animals died in the floods, which came as a nice silver lining.<\/p>\n
