Tests are being done to determine what killed a wild elephant found dead on a Prachuap Khiri Khan pineapple plantation on Wednesday evening.

 

Officials suspect the animal, between five and 10 years old, succumbed to infection stemming from a fight with another bull elephant.

There was an infected wound on the left hip that appeared to be caused by a tusk.

 

Pol Capt Somchai Yoddamnonekul, deputy inspector in Sam Roi Yod district, and Kittipat Prempree, chief of Kui Buri National Park’s animal protection unit, led officials in examining the carcass.

 

Officials used a metal detector to ensure there were no bullets embedded in the body.
