Indian state Chhattisgarh has begun an ambitious programme to increase the population of the wild buffalo through cloning.
As a first step towards this goal, the government has set in motion the process for preparing a clone of Asha, the lone female wild buffalo left in the state’s Udanti Wildlife Sanctuary, about 150 km from here, in Gariaband district.
