Live and Let Live: Wildlife Versus Humans in Beautiful Nepal by Satis Shroff: Take Chitwan, the jungle in Nepal�s Terai for instance. Till 1961 organized poachers wantonly decimated the wild Rhinoceros unicornis in the jungle in order to sell the rhino-horn for a profit due to its healing properties in traditional Chinese Medicine. In February 1993 for instance, four rhinos were found dead in the Chitwan Park and the poachers had removed their hoofs and horns. In Nawalparasi there had been similar cases of rhinos being shot for their horns and hoofs a few weeks earlier.
