Elephant driven back to jungles
December 27, 2016
An elephant, which had been standing in a pond in Muttathuvayal for around 24 hours, was driven back to the jungles this evening.
According to police,the villagers had complained to the Forest Department that the elephant, 20-years in appearance, has been standing in the pond behind a bush since Monday, creating panic among the residents.
Officials, along with anti-poaching watchers, rushed to the spot and burst crackers to drive away the pachyderm to the jungles.
