Gir National Park Brings Back 20 Indian Grey Hornbills After Decades
Authorities at the Gir National Park in Gujarat have released 20 Indian grey Hornbills into the facility, since it was last seen a few decades ago. Chief conservator of forests stated that they would add more than 20 hornbills in Gir, to increase the bird's population. He commented, "Once their numbers in Gir reach about 500 pairs, it will be safe to assume that their population is stable".
