In an impressive stride for wildlife conservation, two orphaned Asiatic black bear cubs are beginning a new chapter, having been released into Dehing Patkai National Park, Assam, after being rescued from the Dissoi Reserved Forest in Jorhat in 2025.

Under the guidance of Sonali Ghosh, the Field Director of Kaziranga National Park & Tiger Reserve, the cubs were discovered and handed over for special care to the Centre for Wildlife Rehabilitation and Conservation (CWRC) in Kaziranga.
