    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.
