context_page_description: The rufous-necked hornbill is a species of hornbill in northeastern India, especially in Arunachal Pradesh, Indian Subcontinent and Southeast Asia. It is locally extinct in Nepal due to hunting and significant loss of habitat. There are < 10,000 adults left in the wild. With a length of about 117 centimetres, it is among the largest Bucerotine hornbills. The underparts, neck and head are rich rufous in the male, but black in the female.
context_section_description: The rufous-necked hornbill occurs in Sanskrit literature under the epithet vārdhrīnasa, a term which at times also has been used to refer to other Bucerotidae.
  In Arunachal Pradesh, rufous-necked hornbills have been hunted by tribals for their feathers and beak.
