Elephants Never Forget

Fifteen elephants keep revisiting the area, near Matari Railway Station in India, where one of the herd was struck down by a train recently. They seem to be bent on revenge as they are damaging houses and blocking the tracks near the site of the accident. Attempts to to chase them off have been only partly successful as the angry, grieving animals keep returning.
