The Mpumalanga Tourism and Parks Agency (MTPA) has confirmed that the four young bull elephants that had wandered from Mozambique into South Africa have been herded back into their country. The MTPA spokesperson, Simphiwe Shungube, told Lowveld Media that the elephants were spotted in sugar-cane farms near Komatipoort yesterday (Wednesday, March 5). “Let us also emphasise that they were vagrant elephants and we are pleased that they are safely back home without facing any harm. They were herded back today (Thursday, March 6),” added Shungube. An elephant was attacked by residents in Matsulu just over a year ago and was killed and butchered for its meat. https://www.citizen.co.za/lowvelder/news-headlines/local-news/2025/03/06/four-young-bull-elephants-that-had-crossed-over-into-south-africa-are-now-safely-back-in-mozambique/
