Nepal's rhino population grows after anti-poaching measures

Fantastic news from the Guardian:

A surge in the number of endangered rhinos has brought some cheer to earthquake-hit Nepal.

The country has seen a steady increase in the number of rhinos over the past 10 years, making the country a global example of how poachers can be defeated.

The country’s population of one-horned rhinos, one of the most endangered species in the world, now stands at 645, according to figures released this week.
