Fear stalks several areas of Nilambur forest
Fear is stalking several areas of the Nilambur forest as wild elephants are posing a threat to the life of people living in the forest fringes. Especially vulnerable are the tribespeople living in ramshackle tents in several hamlets in the Nilambur forest.
Babu, a 35-year-old rubber tapper from Thandankallu hamlet, had a miraculous escape from an elephant attack on Wednesday morning as he hung on courageously to a tusk of the elephant. He survived the attack with serious rib injuries
