A valiant effort to save a young elephant's trunk from a cable wire trick. Successful!

A cable wire trap caught this young elephant, and its trunk is in a terrible state as the wound it caused is deep. When field officers were alarmed by this sight, they immediately contacted a team of vets and experts to arrive to treat this elephants trunk. The trunk is one of the most important body parts of an elephant as they pretty much use it for everything they do. Without a strong and a properly functioning trunk, these elephants will not be able to survive, navigate, and eat to get through the day.

Wildlife team started the process by cleaning the wound and removing the cable as it has cut a deep wound in the trunk and on a very sensitive part of the trunk as well. The elephant is in pain, and it is struggling yet it has given these officers the chance to do the needful, only after receiving a shot anesthetics through a tranquilizer gun. Wildlife officers will decide if they will take this elephant back to a nearby facility or if they can manage to treat this wound by visiting and keeping a track on this elephant.

Officers will be on the lookout and raise the awareness level to high with local police officers to educate farmers about setting such cheap traps to harm animals. This trap might have been set for some other animal who might have been raiding farming fields at night. Local law enforcement officers will be working to punish anyone who harm wild animals with such tricks and traps.
