In a major inter-State wildlife conservation initiative, Madhya Pradesh and Assam have agreed to exchange several wild animal species to strengthen biodiversity and restore species that have become rare or locally extinct in parts of the country.
Under the agreement, Assam will send 50 wild water buffaloes, one-horned rhinoceroses and king cobras to Madhya Pradesh in a phased manner. In return, Madhya Pradesh will provide tigers and crocodiles to Assam, officials said.
