The demand for rhino horn is high, and the poaching of rhinos is a major threat to their survival. In Assam, there are an estimated 2,400 rhinos, which is about 70% of the world&#8217;s population. Poaching is a major threat to the rhino population in Assam, and it is estimated that about 100 rhinos are poached each year.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they are not as threatened by poaching as rhinos.

Wild boars are not poached for their body parts, but they are hunted for food and sport.
