I regret to bring this news:

KATHMANDU (AFP) - Three rare one-horned rhinos were killed and one was wounded by poachers in areas around Chitwan National Park in southwest Nepal in the past week, park officials have said.


"The forest officials found two dead rhinos at two different community forests in Chitwan while one was found dead in Nawalparasi district in the past one week," said Tikaram Adhikari, chief conservation officer of the wildlife reserve, Monday.

He said one of the killed rhinos was pregnant.

"The poachers killed the pregnant rhino and took away the horn but were unable to extract horns from the other two, while another injured rhino, shot by the poachers, is undergoing treatment and is out of danger," Adhikari said.
