Rhinos Roam Nepal’s Streets

Near Nepal’s Chitwan National Park, a surprising sight can unfold after dark: a greater one-horned rhinoceros wandering near shops and homes in search of food. Nearby farmland can attract these powerful animals with tempting crops, bringing wildlife and human communities into unexpectedly close contact. Greater one-horned rhinos are generally solitary and primarily feed on grasses, leaves, and other vegetation. As human settlements expand near wildlife habitats, rhinos may venture into agricultural areas, sometimes creating risks for both residents and the animals. Their calm appearance should not be mistaken for harmlessness—rhinos are large, powerful wild animals that need space and should never be approached.
