Kaziranga National Park and Tiger Reserve, renowned for its rhinoceroses, elephants, and tigers, has made a groundbreaking discovery—283 species of native insects and spiders have been recorded, according to a recent survey.

The study identifies 254 insect species and 29 spider species, providing valuable insights into Kaziranga's often-overlooked biodiversity and its significance in combating climate change.
