Siddapur, Nov. 11: In the wake of the incident of a wild elephant attacking and killing a laborer in broad daylight in the Emmegundi plantation near Palibetta on Monday, an operation was conducted to raze the wild elephants that were camped in the coffee plantations.
During this, 9 wild elephants were found in one group among the wild elephants that were camping inside the coffee plantation and wreaking havoc. The wild elephants in this group separated and roamed the operation team from one plantation to another. However, the operation team, which did not give up, chased the wild elephants to the Devamacchi reserve forest area.
The wild elephants that went to the forest returned to the country at night and started wandering, which has become a headache for the operation team. Forest department officials said that staff have been deployed to track the movement of wild elephants even at night.
Under the guidance of Virajpet Taluk Deputy Conservator of Forests Jagannath, A.C.F. Gopal, Tithimati Zone Forest Officer Gangadhar, Virajpet Zone Forest Officer Shivaram, Sub-Zone Forest Officer Shashi. Devaraj Virajpet and Tithimati Zone Forest staff and RRT team elephant task force personnel participated in the operation.
