Nigel Marven's documentaries mesmerize me; Jaguar Adventure was right up among the best I have ever enjoyed.

@bigbenboa No, actually rifles are standard issued with guards at Kaziranga. Kaziranga is besieged by heavily armed terrorist groups who poach rhinos to fund their campaigns and fire on guards with Chinese-origin automatic weapons - gun battles are therefore a regular incident. India has an incomparable variety of megafauna and between population, poaching and a paucity of funds protecting them is a gargantuan task.

Since you need it explained which I find strange and abnormal. I will do it for you. The rifleman is there in case there is a massive problem and they must fight for their lives such as the vehicle fails in the run or it overtakes them and possibly flips the vehicle and they have no choice but to kill her. Pretty self explanatory to me but I guess you have lost your natural instinct of flight or fight. Good luck junior.

It's interesting they are shooting a documentary with a RIFLEMAN!!! What were they going to do, shoot that mother rhino? She wasn't bothering anybody, it's the documentary crew that came right up to her and her baby.
