Lataguri (Dooars) West Bengal, Sep. 25 : Two tamed elephants proved a major help for the forest rangers of the Gorumara National Park in the foothills of Himalaya recently to steer back a rhinoceros and its calf to the sanctuary after the latter strayed into the villages along the Indo-Bhutan Border in the Dooars region of Jalpaiguri District.

It was decided to use the services of the two tamed jumbos--Surya and Kalavati--for this special task, which they successfully completed on Sunday.

It is believed that the rhinos might have left their habitat on Saturday (September 20) and strayed northward for over 15 to 20 kilometres to reach the village of Lal Basti, which is the last human settlement in India skirting the Bhutan border.
