A “killer” elephant has reportedly claimed its eleventh victim, an auto-rickshaw driver, after rampaging through Indian villages.

The elephant has reportedly killed 11 people and destroyed 300 houses and shops across the southern Indian states of Kerala and Tamil Nadu in recent years.

Arikomban, translated to “rice tusker”, was named by locals can after his fondness raiding rice shops.

He has been caught several times and relocated to nature reserves but activists have fought to free him.

Relocate it to an activist's home.

Why the “”? Are the people possibly not dead? Is the elephant presumed innocent unless convicted by a jury of its peers on a finding of guilt beyond ba reasonable doubt? Bizarre.

Their no kill religious beliefs are killing them. One must conclude that it’s an acceptable price for them to pay. If they wanted the rogue shot, I can’t imagine they would have any trouble finding some with the means willing to do it. Gratis.

11 down, 1,199,999,888 to go.

Nothing to worry about here. After all, the Hindi believe they will be reincarnated based upon their how they lived their current lives. And the best of them will be reincarnated as cows. The elephant is just helping increase the cow population in Hindia.

Maybe they should name the elephant “Old Yeller”?
