The One-Horned Rhino, also known as the Indian Rhino, is a large herbivorous mammal once found primarily in the grasslands of the Indian subcontinent, including parts of Pakistan. Recognized for its distinctive single horn, this species had been a symbol of conservation success, though it still faced threats from poaching and habitat loss. While the One-Horned Rhino is extinct in Pakistan, conservation efforts continue in neighboring countries to protect and restore its populations.

Habitat & Lifestyle
One-Horned Rhinos preferred dense grasslands, wetlands, and riverine forests. They were primarily grazers, feeding on grasses, leaves, and shrubs. Typically solitary animals, they usually came together only for mating or when a mother was raising her calf.

Area Found
The One-Horned Rhino was once found in various parts of Pakistan, particularly in the northern regions and areas like the southern parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. However, it is now declared extinct in Pakistan, with the largest populations currently residing in India and Nepal.
