Presented by Arpita Dutta

One of the highlights of our South Asia adventures is encountering the world's second-largest rhino: the greater one-horned rhinoceros. India and Nepal are famous for one-horned rhinos, which look distinctly different from their African cousins, but this wasn’t always the case. Just a few decades ago, they numbered fewer than 200 in India and around 100 in Nepal. Expedition Leader Arpita Dutta talks about the assaults (including poaching) that pushed these pachyderms to the brink of extinction and the conservation initiatives that have brought them back.
