Gaur were declared extinct from Bangladesh according to IUCN (2000) Red List. We have recorded at least three different herds of guar in our camera trap images during the study. The locals approximated that 60-100 gaur are found in this area." Camera trap images of gaur in the Chittagong Hill Tracts. Statement by the CCA: "Camera trap photos of a herd of wild Gaur (Bos gaurus) captured by our parabiologists in the Chittagong Hill Tracts! Mega fauna, such as, Asian Elephants, Gaurs, Leopards and Bears still roams in the wild of CHTs!" *This image is copyright of its original author Anwaruddin Choudhury (2002) Distribution and conservation of the Gaur Bos gaurus in the Indian Subcontinent LINK Abstract The Gaur Bos gaurus ranges from India to peninsular Malaysia. Its distribution, status and conservation in the Indian subcontinent are reviewed here on the basis of available information, both published papers and unpublished census reports of forest departments, and field survey data from north-eastern India and parts of Bhutan and Nepal. The Gaur is found in three disjunct regions, south-western India, central India and north-eastern India (including Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh). Within these regions the distribution is highly fragmented and includes a number of small non-viable isolated populations. The habitat in north-eastern India is still contiguous with that in Bhutan, Myanmar and Bangladesh and to some extent with Nepal. Although the estimated population of the Gaur is 23 000–34 000, it is declining alarmingly. Populations outside the protected areas may not last long. An action plan has been proposed for its conservation. From "Distribution, Ecology and Conservation of the Gaur (Bos gaurus, H. Smith, 1824)" LINK "Gaur historically occurred throughout mainland south and southeast Asia and Sri lanka. Gaur is distributed in South and South East Asia from India to peninsular Malaysia, occurring in India, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, China, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam and Malaysia (Ellerman and Morrison-Scott, 1951; Corbet and Hill, 1992)."
