A herd of 21 elephants, including tuskers and calves, has entered the G. Udayagiri region of Kandhamal district, attracted by ripe mangoes and jackfruits. The herd has caused significant crop and property damage in the Kalinga section. Local residents are in a state of panic as the presence of elephants has hindered their livelihoods, especially during the fruit collection season. Forest department teams are actively working to drive the elephants back into the forest. https://sambad.in/district/kandhmal/21-elephant-herd-terror-in-ghumsur-udayagiri-kandhamal-12001079 #creator program
