RHINO BREEDING CENTER

Pioneering conservation through successful breeding programs

CONSERVATION THROUGH BREEDING

Our Rhino Breeding Center stands as a beacon of hope for one of the world's most endangered species. Established in 2018, this state-of-the-art facility has successfully bred 12 healthy rhino calves, contributing significantly to the global conservation efforts for the Greater One-Horned Rhinoceros.

Through advanced reproductive techniques, comprehensive veterinary care, and international collaboration, we're not just breeding rhinos – we're securing their future. Our program combines cutting-edge science with traditional conservation wisdom to create optimal conditions for these magnificent creatures to thrive.
