    One-horned rhinos can be found across the entire northern part of India, along the Indus, Ganges and Brahmaputra River basins

    He was using a remote trigger to take the shots from the heavily camouflaged camera after trying to get close to the animals for almost 14 days

    The rhino came charging towards the camera without any provocation, undoubtedly seeing it as a threat, but lens remained intact 

    Fortunately wildlife photographer Dhritiman Mukherjee was not behind the camera when the one-horned rhino smashed into it
