Wild elephant attack in Bara (Is 'Dhurbe' back again ? )

Posted by Anup Baral December 22, 2015 :
A wild elephant with a broken tusk, which had grabbed attention of environmentalists across the world last year following the decision of authorities in Nepal to ´control its menace by killing it´, is believed to have resurfaced in Rautahat district - as wild as ever. An elephant that has already killed two persons and ravaged a dozen houses in Laxmania VDC of Rautahat over the past two weeks is believed by many to be ´Dhurbe´, since it not only resembles the fiery tusker last spotted in Chitwan in size and appearance but also because it has a broken tusk. But the experts are not that sure.
