Ugh, these news stories always leave me feeling so frustrated

. I mean, what's going on with India's forest management? It's like they're not even trying to protect their wildlife anymore

. A single elephant goes rogue and you've got 22 people dead, plus who knows how many more injured... it's just too much

.
And don't even get me started on the government's response time

. Like, how long did it take them to realize that an elephant was going around killing people? And now they're scrambling to catch it with like a bunch of forest personnel and wildlife experts

. Can't they just set up some effective conservation efforts instead of waiting for something like this to happen?

.
And honestly, I'm not even sure why we're still surprised by these human-elephant conflicts

. We've been talking about deforestation and habitat loss for years, but nothing ever seems to change

. It's just a classic case of humans encroaching on elephant habitats and then expecting the animals to adapt

. Wake up, India!
