Hunsur: Fed up by the constant inaction by the Forest Department despite many appeals and damages to crops, the residents of Tibetan Colony at Hunsur drove away a marauding wild elephant that had entered their habitat. Using shouting crowds and stones as weapons, the villagers chased the elephant from the plantations.
A wild tusker entered into the Tibetan settlement from the Nagarahole National Park from Sollepura area under Veeranahosahalli Range and has been camping deep inside banana and jowar plantations since the last two days.
