These things can happen.... elephant...

Mysore, India(Zone 10a)

Yesterday's happening in our city. Reported in the local evening paper and we did not know it happened close to our house, though we were there. Pic is not close to our home. Some of you remember that I had invited the pachyderms for a little fill some years back. But now the roads are too busy to take these animals for a walk, so they choose to take in less busy roads. They need walk. These belong to the Royal Family. It was later reported that it went amok after it got angry when a low-flying helicopter annoyed it. Luckily, no one was hurt by this tamed pachyderm. Some more pics in the paper showed how it went back to its 'home' in the Palace, showered mud and water and cooled itself.

Hi Dinu, thanks for the interesting story and picture. No one around here can top that! I love nature shows about elephants. They're very human sometimes.

Click for the 15th date on the left if it does not directly take you there. It is the local paper. You will also find MY article (on Mission Hospital) as you scroll down in the same edition.
