Chandigarh, August 7
Indiscriminate urbanisation and quest of infrastructural development has led to a significant loss of natural habitat meant for animals to reside. This attempt has led to serious repercussion as incidents of wild animals entering human colonies have frantically increased over past few years.
A fresh video in the course has surfaced on social media, where a rhinoceros can be seen racing down a street of a human settlement area.
The video has been shared on Twitter by Indian Forest Officer Susanta Nanda. “When the human settlement strays into a rhino habitat… Don’t confuse with Rhino straying in to a town,” the caption of the post reads.
