An elephant was found dead near Wahuvan area in Mechinagar-3 of Jhapa. The preliminary investigation by the police has revealed that the elephant found dead near the local Dharadhare river may have been electrocuted.
Local farmers have built electric fences from house to house to protect their crops. The police suspect that the elephant died after falling into the trap of the same fence.
In the past three months, half a dozen wild elephants have been killed in Jhapa, Morang and Sunsari. Some were shot dead. Most of them have been found dead after falling into electric traps.
