Kaziranga National Park
Assam, India
Two-thirds of Earth's one-horned rhinos graze these Brahmaputra floodplains — elephant-grass savanna patrolled by tigers, wild buffalo, swamp deer and 500 bird species. Jeep and elephant-back safaris meet rhinos at dawn in this UNESCO stronghold.
Why visit: The best place on the planet to see the greater one-horned rhinoceros.
History: Protection began in 1905 after Mary Curzon found rhino numbers collapsing; from a few dozen animals, Kaziranga now shelters ~2,600 — conservation's great comeback story.
