Kendujhar: Forest department officials have detained a youth for allegedly harassing a wild tusker after a video of the incident surfaced on social media, officials said Thursday. Despite repeated awareness campaigns, some people continue to provoke wild elephants for photographs and videos, the department said. In a separate incident, another video showed a youth from Chinnamalipasi village under Patana range filming a sleeping elephant and sharing the footage on social media while inviting others to the spot. Forest officials alleged that he also argued with Forest Department personnel who tried to stop him. The department said action would also be taken against him and warned that anyone found harassing or harming elephants would face legal action.
