Close encounters of the wild kind in Northeast....
Ignorance is bliss....alright ... a cliche that you perhaps heard 'N'times back in school but sometimes you just have to learn it again the hard way. Learn we did few weeks back. Going back to school again the first bell that the term Rhino rang, back then was invariably Kaziranga, Assam's largest wildlife park. Famous for its one horned Rhinos the park is the favorite haunt of journos these days...apart from the Rhinos. But what they probably missed in school that the park also has good many tigers, now about eighty of them. We were in Kaziranga to shoot a story on Kaziranga guards, a strong force of dedicated foresters who are responsible for Rhino conservation in the park (and also of tigers as we later found out). We shot for the whole day, shot every thing on Rhino conservation; we filmed herds of hog deer, wild buffalos,....
