A female rhino was killed by a pair of tigers while she was giving birth. When rhinos die in the park, guards remove their horn to prevent poachers from taking it and selling it on the black market. Ground-up rhino horn is used as an ingredient in traditional Chinese medicine to treat everything from cancer and headaches to the common cold - and is used as an aphrodisiac. It's literally worth its weight in gold.

Here,Himalayan griffons feed on the corpse.
