Continuous presence of two tuskers in and around a few villages in the Nilgiris District has instilled fear among the local people here.
The tuskers that were found roaming in the villages of Ullathi, Kadanadu, Shakthinagar, Kavaratti, Mallikorai, Keezh Mallikorai, Kavilorai, Odayaratti, Pendhatti and Alatti and were reportedly coming constantly in contact with humans.
