Bluespunk Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I hope the elephant is ok and will not be put down. Thai style, of course. Can't you give it a rest for once. A woman is dead and her 2 year old child has suffered serious injuries and has lost their mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about medical expenses for the LIVE two year old victim? I guess that comes under "compensation to the relatives of the dead victim". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artisi Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 This elephant has killed people before. Time for it to be put down. If this is a rogue elephant then the person/people who allowed it to be in a position to attack others should be put-down for such stupidity.

If it were not then you yourself would have to absent yourself from where ever you are as before you and all of us came there were wild animals about. We forced them out, now there is not enough room for them and us. However, not to worry, there are now too many humans on the planet, let alone wild animals, and population implosion is on the way!

springheeled jack Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 theres been a lot of controversy about elephants recently and the risk they pose to humans I suggest they should be be put in an area where they wont pose a threat to humans I don't know what this poor lady was doing in the plantation with her son I have no doubt it will be explained in due course.

My argument is not 'dud', I too am part of the problem. I am aware of that. When the implosion does come, I just hope it's a painless as possible for those affected. For those who remain, I hope they don't forget the lessons learnt should they be given the chance to rebuild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberfarang Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Wild animals and people don`t mix. Humans do not have priority rights on territory although they think they do. Human populations are encroaching on the natural habitats all the time, so there will be clashes between the species. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did read the whole story, did you bother reading my post? - absolutely no mention of either wild or domesticated. Rogue applies to either wild or domesticated, either way it should have been relocated well away from people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billd766 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 This elephant has killed people before. Time for it to be put down. You know this elephant personally, do you? To me most elephants look the same and if it a wild elephant as the story states, how many were in the herd? Was it a male or female elephant, young or old. Was there a baby elephant that the woman was between and its mother? Do you have a photo of that particular elephant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a wild elephant killing plantation workers on their farms. Try reading the full story. I did. In the first link there is nothing much about the elephant. http://englishnews.thaipbs.or.th/woman-trampled-to-death-by-an-elephant-while-her-son-injured In the second link officials only believe it was the same elephant but I am sure that there are many wild elephants up in northern Thailand. http://www.chiangraitimes.com/thai-woman-trampled-to-death-by-elephant-in-chanthaburi-province.html Quote "Forestry officials from Khao Soi Dao National Park in Chanthaburi said the Pornnipa Ngamprasert and her son were believed to have been attacked by a 10-year-old male elephant which two years ago attacked and killed an orchard owner at Ban Bo Madua in tambon Chaman of Makham district."
