Wildlife officers had been informed by the villagers that there is an Elephant fallen on the ground in a forest close by. It had been helpless and unable to move being caught in to a trap set by some farmers with the purpose of protecting their crops from the wild animals. As a result of being trapped, it had been slightly wounded and very feeble physically. Luckily wildlife team had immediately reached the place and cleared the surrounding of the tusker. First, they tested whether the wild can standup properly and balance its body by itself. As it is impossible, they wash its ear and start treatments by giving saline to make the tusker active and conscious.
Once again, they make an attempt to hoist the tusker by ropes with the help of an excavator machine. Although they made several attempts to recover the tusker for few days, the tusker was not able to come to the normalcy.
