![#News || K9 Dog Leon, the Belgian Malinois famously known as Kaziranga’s “super sniffer,” has retired from active service after nearly eight years of dedicated wildlife protection duty.
Leon retired on August 15 after joining active duty in November 2018 following specialised training.
During his career, Leon completed more than 200 patrols and participated in over 30 specialised operations with the Assam Forest Department and Assam Police.
