Elephant Tramples Man And Keeps the Corpse

GUWAHATI, India (Reuters) - A wild elephant pulled a man down from a
tree, trampled him to death and for two weeks has refused to part with
the corpse, police in northeast India say.

The man climbed the tree to escape a herd of wild elephants rampaging
through his village about 80 miles from Guwahati, the largest city in
Assam.

One elephant grabbed him, pulled him to the ground and broke his legs.

"The elephant must have got even more irritated as the villagers were
trying to free the man," a forest ranger said Sunday. "It trampled him to
death and took the body along with him."

That was two weeks ago and it has been carrying the body around ever
since, police said.
