Jumbo sized elephant treated by wildlife officers-Observing the giant for any discomfort or weakness is vital as well and giving some medicinal shots will avoid dangers of infections and diseases at the time. Officers are well aware of hunters that can sneak into these areas, but this giant is not a tusker and will not be a target unless it a very barbaric individual to shoot such a creature kept as a national treasure.
Many of these elephants are regarded as national treasures, pretty much every Sri Lankan elephant.
