The residents of the Indo-Bhutan border area are grappling with a growing
crisis as wild elephants venture out of the forest in search of food,
causing disturbances day and night.

In a recent incident in Rajagarh, located in the Bhergaon region, wild
elephants emerged from the forest during the afternoon, adding to the
escalating tension. This incident is part of a troubling trend where
elephants, driven by hunger, invade human settlements.

Social media platforms have been abuzz with a viral video showing a giant
elephant interacting with a pet dog, highlighting the unusual and often
dangerous encounters between wildlife and domestic animals.

The people living in the area are in a desperate situation due to the havoc
caused by the elephants. Those who live close to the Bhutan border face
increasing daily risks due to the elephants' regular presence, which
endangers both personal safety and property.
