Large sections of grassland have been reduced to ashes, raising concerns about wildlife movement.
In November 2024, the HC issued a directive to maintain a three-meter distance between elephants during festival parades, and when this directive triggered criticism from temple committees, the bench clarified that it insisted on distance norms to prioritise safety.
Forest department veterinarians have been monitoring the elephant for the past three days.
Pug marks of the animal were found at Kannoth Mala, 44 Miles, Thalppuzha, and Kambipalam area.
The search was conducted by dividing the 50-member team into six groups.
The jumbo will be tranquillized before administering medicine.
In parallel, amendments to the Forest Conservation Act of 1980 now permit private investors to engage in activities like ecotourism alongside government agencies.
The elephant was captured using a rope net and safely shifted.
Local residents have protested, refusing to allow the body to be removed, and blocked the path of forest department officials and police who arrived at the scene.
In fact, the ‘Ayyan’ app contains information such as the location of help centres, medical emergency units, accommodation facilities, elephant squad teams and washrooms along the traditional forest path.
