Since Mizoram shares its international border with Myanmar, wild animals keep crossing the border “as they don’t see geographical boundaries”, Javadekar said.

The MoU will enhance joint cooperation between India and Myanmar. India would also train officials from Myanmar in the field of wildlife, he said.
