National Park Tackles Elephant Issue

Drone footage has revealed massive herds of up to a hundred elephants leaving the park to forage for food in human settlements around Nakhon Ratchasima province in Thailand.

This has been an ongoing issue for several months, causing significant distress to local farmers.

Rising temperatures and altered rainfall patterns have led to a decline in natural food sources within the park, forcing elephants to seek food elsewhere.

To address this pressing issue, park officials are working to create additional food sources within the park, restore degraded grasslands, and implement various deterrent measures, including physical barriers and human patrols. They are also exploring ways to compensate farmers for crop losses.
