Pregnant woman trampled by elephants in tragic Indonesian attack

In Indonesia, a 33-year-old pregnant woman, along with her husband, was working on the harvest when a herd of about fifteen elephants attacked their plantation. The ending of this story is tragic.

Despite attempts to scare the animals away, the woman in advanced pregnancy was brutally trampled by the frightened elephants, resulting in her and her unborn child's deaths.

Karsini, a mother of three, was in her fifth month of pregnancy. As a result of the attack, she suffered severe abdominal and waist injuries. Her husband managed to escape and survived.

Karsini's body was found by local residents of the Musi Rawas region after the herd had moved away from the scene. The police chief in Muara Lakitan, M. Abdul Karim, confirmed these sad events, noting the victim's severe injuries.

As highlighted by "The Sun," this tragic accident points to the growing tension between wild animals and humans in areas where their natural habitats are being restricted by agricultural and industrial activities.

Elephant attacks on humans are dramatic events that serve as a reminder of the potential danger resulting from the increasingly frequent collisions between the wild world and human settlements.

A few months ago, it was reported that Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of Congo became the site of a tragic incident in which two lost elephants killed two farmers. The animals were wandering through farmland near the park, leading to the attack on the elderly individuals.

The incident occurred in the Congolese province of North Kivu, sparking outrage among residents who planned to protest against the park authorities. The incident forced officials to plan the installation of an electric fence around the park to effectively prevent the animals from leaving the reserve.
