The video has sent shockwaves among people on the internet. A user wrote, “Fortunate that the juvenile scared her away before that adult charged her.”
Another user wrote, “Leave wild animals alone.”
“Never go close to the elephant when Tail is waging. It feels threatened,” the third user wrote.
Following three weeks of elephant attacks in Kerala that resulted in three fatalities, the local government is hoping that increased patrolling and hundreds of additional cameras will help combat the issue, which has sparked protests.
In the most recent incident, local media reported that on Friday in the town of Pulpally in the forested Wayanad region, a 52-year-old tourist guide was fatally attacked by a herd of elephants.
