Guest guest Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 Link: http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/holnus/004200704250318.htm Poachers of one-horn rhino killed Kaziranga (Assam), April 25 (PTI): Two poachers of one-horn rhino in Kaziranga National Park were killed early Tuesday when forest gaurds opened fire at them during an anti-poaching operation. Two more poachers out of a four-member team fled, one having received injuries in firing by forest guards who laid a trap to catch them at Himoluchapori in Agratoli range towards the eastern part of the Park near Bokakhat. Armed with shoot-at-sight orders, forest rangers with guards waited upon the poachers who prefer early hours to kill the animals when they come out in search of food, park's director Suren Borgohain said.
