Assam the gateway to North east India! It is so vast and wide but unique and different too. Assam and one horned rhinoceros go hand in hand.

The matriarch of the herd carries the knowledge of the elders and shares all the essential. Elephants powder themselves with mud and sand just after a bathe...that is there way of applying sunscreen. This fascinating animal always attracts me.
