We have warned the people who are staying around to be cautious and not to venture out at night through the areas bordering forests."He said that during 2021, a farmer who was keeping guard at his agricultural farm was gored to death by wild elephants and that if people don't take proper care on the basis of information provided by the department, there could be difficulties.Prasad Ramakrishnan, an avid elephant researcher told , "The elephants lack water and food and they are reaching human settlements mainly for this.

They are moving in herds and comparatively are less dangerous but may be on occasions things can turn for the worse."Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
