Elephants walked out of the dense forest in Kunming and trampled on the fields. What measures has the local government taken?

Elephants walked out of the dense forest in Kunming and trampled on the fields. According to the on-site person, the relevant local departments are organizing muck trucks to contain them, and the relevant departments are using corn stalks to lead the elephants out of the mountains.

According to Kunming Daily News, at 2 1: 55 on June 2nd, wild elephants moved northward along the north side of Laoguangqing Village, He Chun Street, Hongta District, Yuxi City, and entered Shuanghe Township, Jinning District, Kunming City.

Some people at the scene are only two or three hundred meters away from the elephant. According to its introduction to the Red Star journalist, wild Asian elephants in the north appeared in the foothills between Laojianghe Village and Liaocaoba Village at about 6: 00 on the 3rd. The video it sent showed that at least nine elephants were visible to the naked eye, and several of them were trampled in the fields.

There are different opinions on the reasons why Asian elephants rarely move northward. According to experts' analysis, the main reasons are as follows:

First, the number of Asian elephants in nature reserves is increasing, and its food supply is difficult to guarantee, which leads them to leave their original habitats to seek food; Second, after Asian elephants leave the nature reserve, it is more convenient and delicious to eat crops such as sugarcane and corn, and they are not threatened by attacks and have no intention of returning to their original habitat; Third, the elephant is lost. Elephants feed on crops in the ecotone between forest and farmland, but they have never found a natural habitat suitable for long-term habitat, so they are constantly wandering and looking for it aimlessly.

"These views are reasonable to a certain extent, but the rare northward migration of elephants is a serious and professional scientific issue that requires interdisciplinary comprehensive judgment." Xie Yi, a professor in the Department of Forestry Economics, School of Economics and Management, Beijing Forestry University, said that an interdisciplinary joint expert group has been formed, and the cause of journey to the south in Ye Yi needs further scientific research to verify.
