  • Le Laokhowa Wildlife sanctuary (Lowkhowa Avayaranya) est une aire protégée située dans l'État de l'Assam en Inde. Ce Wildlife sanctuary s'étend sur 70 km2, sur la rive sud du Brahmapoutre, à 40 kilomètres en aval du Parc national de Kaziranga. À 30 kilomètres au nord-ouest, de l'autre côté du fleuve, se trouve le parc national d'Orang. Il a été considéré comme la plus riche et diversifiée des aires protégées de l'Assam jusque dans les années 1980. En 1983, on y trouvait encore 70 rhinocéros indiens ; il semble qu'ils aient tous été braconnés à la fin des années 1980. (fr)

  • Laokhowa Wildlife Sanctuary (Assamese: লাওখোৱা অভয়াৰণ্য) is protected area located in the state of Assam in India. This wildlife sanctuary covers 70.13 km2, on the south bank of the Brahmaputra River in Nagaon district, It is situated 40 km downstream of the Kaziranga National Park and 30 km northwest of the Orang National Park on the other side of the river Brahmaputra. It is a part of the Laokhowa-Burachapori eco-system. The sanctuary is an ideal habitat for Indian rhinoceros and Asiatic water buffaloes. Other animals found here are the royal Bengal tiger, Indian leopard, Indian boar, civet, leopard cat, hog deer, etc. Over 200 species of birds have been recorded in the sanctuary, including migratory birds. Laokhowa had more than 70 Indian rhinos in early 1980s which were all killed by poachers. In 2016, two rhinos, a mother and her daughter, were reintroduced to the sanctuary from Kaziranga National Park as part of the Indian Rhino Vision 2020 (IRV 2020) program, but both animals died within months due to natural causes. It is open for tourists from the beginning of November to the end of April. (en)
