Movement of rhinos to Chapramari and Diana ranges (except Jaldhaka block) has been rare since 1980. Rhinos of Gorumara are known to wander off, one female in 1989 had to be brought back from Bangladesh. Another female strayed into the forests of Apalchand range and moved as far west across the river Teesta to Mahananda sanctuary. It died in Apalchand forests in August 1992.
