snoop1130 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Bull elephant found gored to death in Loei By The Nation A wild bull elephant was found gored to death near a plantation of villagers in the Wang Saprung district Loei province on Friday morning, officials said. Sub-Lieutenant Surapol Prasomsup, chief of the Phu Luang Wildlife Sanctuary, led officials to check a creek near a plantation in Ban Na Luang village in Wang Saprung at 9 am on Friday after villagers informed his office they had heard sounds of male elephant fighting on Thursday night. The officials found the body of an elephant, which appeared to be around 21 to 22 years old, lying near the creek. It had suffered 12 wounds inflicted by elephant tusks. Each wound was about 39-cm deep. A veterinarian on the team, Kanayos Kri-una, said the elephant died about six hours ago. The officials took sample from its trunk, tongue and tail hair for DNA checking and buried the carcass.

They have no need to stage fake news. It's the real stuff they spew out that is hard to believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
