After an absence of 75 years, the sighting of an endangered female Indian Gharial (Gavialis gangeticus) in the Bishwanath stretch of the Brahmaputra River within the Kaziranga Tiger Reserve in Assam has ignited excitement among nature enthusiasts statewide.

The recurring sightings of gharials, particularly females, over the past three years in the Bishwanath stretch of the Brahmaputra within the Northern addition of the Kaziranga National Park and Tiger Reserve, serve as a testament to the success of conservation efforts aimed at restoring endangered species with appropriate protection measures.

The Biswanath Wildlife Division, in collaboration with the TSA Foundation, recently conducted a 60-kilometer-long survey of the Brahmaputra River from Majuli to the Koliabhomora Bridge in Tezpur. This survey was conducted in two transects, covering both upstream and downstream segments of the river, considering its vast width and encompassing a total shoreline of 320 kilometers.
