December 19, 2024
In a dramatic turn of events, footage captures barking dogs triggering a wild elephant’s fierce chase, as it charges after the animals in a burst of aggression.
The incident took place in the garden of Muttuthuvayal near Nallurvayal in Alandurai in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu on December 18.
Visuals show the elephant kicking a bicycle and water can left for the cattle with its foot. It then kicked a sack of cake placed nearby, playing with it like a football, breaking it open, and eating a mouthful. Seemingly dissatisfied with the cake, the elephant scattered it with its trunk, picked up the empty sack with its mouth, and walked away.
According to reports, an auditor named Guru spotted a lone wild elephant in Muttuthuvayal’s garden at 11:30 p.m. last night, prompting the dogs in the area to start barking.
