Assam is home to a significant population of:

Asian elephants
Bengal tigers
Snow leopards
Lions

The correct answer is: a) Asian elephants.

Assam is home to a significant population of Asian elephants. In fact, it is estimated that there are over 5,000 Asian elephants living in the state. These elephants are an important part of the ecosystem and play a vital role in seed dispersal and forest regeneration. They are also a popular tourist attraction and help to boost the local economy.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Bengal tigers are not native to Assam. They are found in the neighboring states of West Bengal and Jharkhand.
  • Snow leopards are found in the Himalayas, not in Assam.
  • Lions are not found in India at all. They are native to Africa.

I hope this helps!
