The Forest Department tranquillised and translocated a lone tusker that was allegedly responsible for the deaths of three persons here to Urigam Forests on Monday.
The elephant, aged between 14 and 16, from Bannerghatta National Park had camped in the area since the past year and is said to have been responsible for the fatal attacks on three humans.
In a bid to prevent further damage, and following demands from the public, an experienced team of forest department staff and medical team was engaged for the mission to translocate the animal.
