US tourist likely killed by elephants
Print Edition
Park rangers in Thailand have found the body of an American tourist who was apparently trampled to death by elephants in a reserve outside Bangkok.
The woman went missing on January 13 in the Kaeng Krachan National Park in the western province of Petchaburi, police said yesterday.
She was found crumpled in the woods five days later and the severity of the injuries indicated she was likely trampled to death. “Her arms, her wrists and other parts of the body were broken, so we assumed she was trampled by elephants because no humans could have caused such powerful damage to the body,” police said.
The woman, who was in her 20s, was traveling alone when she left a camping ground in the park. “Looking at the pictures she took in her camera, we see a lot of animals, birds, snakes, lizards,” police said. “We assumed she wanted to take pictures of elephants because that’s what the Kaeng Krachan National Park is famous for.”
