This elephant was discovered by a group of villagers when they were on a routine walk to gather herbs from the nearby forest.
The wildlife department deployed a team with all the medical supplies they might require on a mission like this, and they did not take even a day to arrive at the scene with much-needed help. Officers had to assess the situation and to make sure they are safe during this medical mission. They also set up a small camp close by so they can monitor and look after this elephant with all the necessary attention given to it.
Many villagers around the area volunteered to provide food and water to the sick elephant and the team. They were well concerned about the fact of helping the team to save this elephant’s life. The injury and the cause of it to be this sick is unknown, and they will need a lot more time to access this situation.

These kinds of missions mean a lot to these officers and to be a part of the good people that are fighting for the rights and towards safeguarding the elephant population.
Island of elephants, the pearl of the Indian Ocean: Sri Lanka
On the beautiful island of Sri Lanka, Elephants roam the streets and through village areas freely in many regions of the country. The small island nation is full of elephants that are loved by most of the inhabitants of the island. Most educated people in the country continually fight corruption and animal abuse. Especially they continue their resolve to show how important the treasures that elephants are to the state as Sri Lankan elephants are known as the largest and the strongest among Asian elephants.
However, around farming villages where elephants raid crops, many conflicts are happening that have caused casualties to both sides. They have set a lot of fences and electric fences with barriers around many villages and farmlands around national parks and many massive forest reserves. These elephants often run into traps and wells placed along with farms for water supply.
We humbly invite you to join us with a journey full of love and help to our treasured wild elephants in the paradise island of Sri Lanka.
