  • If any of the huge funds collected for protection of our wild life would have been used to ease the farmer/elephant problem: This would not need to happen.
    Elephant dung paper is a very lucrative business; so is Pinawela and the tourists are falling daily into the cash trap. Nothing however goes to where it is needed: To compensate the farmers, for example.
    Violence sadly is the way Sri Lankans seem to settle any dispute these days.
    Little wonder; 30 years have taught us nothing else.

    No lives are spared in Sri lanka. ‘Kill anything that moves’ seems to be the motive these days. Sam R

    It is sad and a shame that so-called human beings do this type of cruel acts. The elephants are a national treasure and if people do not protect them then who will. Eleven elephants killed means what the hell the Department of wild life doing?
