A pregnant elephant died in terrible suffering in Kerala after eating a pineapple full of firecrackers, offered to her by some unscrupulous person
He is about to end up run over, his mother saves himA story of terrible violence against animals comes from Kerala, India, where an elephant died after eating a pineapple "stuffed" with firecrackers, offered by someone with the intent to make a joke or just to damage it. But it went much worse: the elephant was in fact a pregnant female and therefore two elephants lost their life for this inexplicable act of cruelty.
The wild elephant had left the Silent Valley forests in Palakkad district, wandering to a nearby village in search of food. As he walked the streets, someone offered him a pineapple loaded with firecrackers. The fruit then exploded in his mouth, leading to the inevitable tragedy.
The injured elephant approached the Velliyar River where he died, standing, together with the baby elephant he was carrying and which would be born after 18-20 months.
The very serious violence suffered by this animal came to light after a forest officer told the details of the story on social media.
“She trusted everyone. When the pineapple she ate exploded, she must have been shocked not thinking about herself, but about the puppy she would give birth in 18 or 20 months, ”wrote forest agent Mohan Krishnan, who was part of the team that attempted. to save the elephant.
The explosion was so powerful that the elephant's tongue and mouth were severely injured and the elephant walked through the village with excruciating pain and terrible hunger (he was no longer able to eat anything due to his injuries) .
“He did not harm a single human even when he ran in excruciating pain in the village streets. He didn't destroy a single house. That's why I said she was full of goodness, ”Krishnan wrote.
The elephant eventually approached the Velliyar River and stayed there until its last breath. The photos show the elephant standing in the river with her mouth and trunk in the water, perhaps to get some unbearable pain relief. The forest officer claims she went there too to avoid flies and other insects on her wounds.
The men who rescued her tried everything to save her, even taking two captive elephants, to try to lead her out of the river.
“But I think it had a sixth sense. She didn't let us do anything, ”Mohan Krishnan wrote.
After hours of trying by officers, the elephant died at 4pm still standing in the water. He was then taken back to the forest in a truck and cremated.
“He needs to get the goodbye he deserves. For this, we took her into the forest in a truck. She lay there on the firewood, in the land where she had played and grown up. The doctor who examined her told me that she was not alone. I could feel her sadness even though her expression on her face was not visible due to her mask. There we cremated it in a pyre. We bowed to her and paid her our last respects, ”said the forest officer.
With "sister ... .. sorry”Ends Krishnan's message. But the apologies are not enough for the very serious act against a defenseless elephant and moreover in a delicate and important phase of his life such as that of pregnancy. We hope that those responsible will be identified and severely punished!
