The mammals will be released in Chimelong Safari Park in Guangzhou of China, according to the Chinese Embassy in Kathmandu.On the occasion, Minister for Forests and Environment Shakti Bahadur Basnet said that gifting the rhinos was of multidimensional importance and maintained that it would further promote Nepal''s identity in the global arena.So far, Nepal has gifted 26 rare one-horned rhinos to various countries including India, the US, Japan, Thailand and Austria among others.
