Richard Bangs' Adventure With Purpose: Assam India (Trailer)

http://bit.ly/bangsin In his latest documentary Assam India: Quest for the One-Horned Rhinoceros, Richard Bangs is traveling in a remote state on the northeastern cusp of India called Assam. Its a throne-room of rushing rivers, raving monsoons and the most soothing of tea. But perhaps most thrilling of all, Assam is home to a staggering range of wildlife. One animal, the Indian one-horned rhinoceros, stands as a special symbol to the people here. Richard is off to find what the one-horned rhino means to the people of Assam, and why it flourishes here as in no other place.

Somewhere in the far, far reaches of India; in the shadow of the Himalayas; along the misty banks of the Brahmaputra River glides a grey blur that almost became a ghost—the one-horned rhinoceros. Its a rare species that a hundred years ago nearly vanished from the face of the earth. What kept the rhino from falling into the chasm of extinction? In this documentary Richard examines what the rhinos story can teach us about our world today; about saving precious wildlife, and—for that matter—all living things.

The back ground music is so not Assamese. Video OK but doesn't jell with the background music. With somany different yet beautiful Assamese songs it couldn't have been that difficult to pick one.Whoever picked the song has no idea about the ethnic / cultural aspect of Assam.
