The Jungle Gang :

The jungle gang meets the Rhino is the first episode of the series "The Jungle Gang". It is the first wildlife Indian film that has been made exclusively for Children as target audience. The perspective of the film is to expose them to the diverse wild flora and fauna of India and encouraging them to actively participate in wildlife conservation.

The film has three animated wild animal characters- Bar Headed Geese, Slender Loris and a Black Buck. Three animals, which bring the flavour of three different habitats of India. As three friends, they travel together to Kaziranga National Park, to know more about the Great Indian Rhinoceros, its habitat, threats and conservations efforts, which has saved it from extinction.

The film has been made with the help of children pitching in with the script and lending their own voice for the characters. The story weaves through the life cycle of the Rhinos, through the seasons in Kaziranga. The film has been supported by World Wide Fund for Nature (India)
