Rescued calf taken to Kozhikamuthi elephant camp

Rescued calf taken to Kozhikamuthi elephant camp

After multiple attempts to reunite an elephant calf with its herd, the forest department has taken it to Kozhikamuthi elephant camp in Topslip in Pollachi. 
The calf was rescued on May 26 in Sirumugai forest by forest personnel. Since then, efforts are being taken to reunite the calf with its herd in Sirumugai and adjoining forest areas. 
However, the efforts were stopped since the herd was not to be seen in the region due to incessant rainfall in the last few days. 
Subsequently, based on the directions of the principal chief conservator of forest and the chief wildlife warden, the calf was taken to elephant camp.
