A wild elephant, named ‘Chinna thambi’ has been roaming in villages between Coimbatore and Tirupur even as the forest department on high alert to rescue him.

The tusker’s movement has cause understandable concern but there is another side to this story as people are rallying to save him and let him be in his natural habitat.

Due to the encroachment of habitats, many wild elephants enter into Coimbatore and nearby villages, often trampling farming fields.

A petition has been filed in Chennai High Court against converting Chinna Thambi into a Kumki elephant. At the same time, many people fear that if he is not tamed, he might be a risk to himself and those around him.

Meanwhile, Tamil Nadu Government told the High Court that there was no plan to change the wild Chinna Thambi into a tamed tusker.

Officials are trying to move him into forest again and have given him water and sugarcane for nutrition. To prevent a disaster, police officials are continuously informing locals about his movement via loudspeakers.
