Telangana Hyderabad - Animal keeper killed in ‘elephant attack’ at Nehru Zoo Park
The Nehru Zoological Park's animal caretaker perished on saturday after being assaulted by an elephant in the animal's cage. Shahbaz, a 23-year-old zoo animal keeper, approached the elephant cage to clean the space as part of his normal responsibilities when Vijay, the elephant, stuck him, according to the information that is currently available.
Around three o'clock in the afternoon, an event occurred, and the other staff members dragged a seriously hurt Shahbaz from the enclosure and sent him to Apollo DRDO Hospital. Around 4 o'clock, the hospital's medical staff pronounced him dead. Officials at the zoo expressed shock at the occurrence and said they were investigating its specifics. The pachyderm was from the wild, according to a senior official, and may contain a "rogue gene" that caused it to behave this way today.

Vijay is truly a wild elephant and was one of two that were captured in the tirumala tirupati highlands area in 1996, according to a top official. Vijay was one of the two who was relocated to Nehru Zoo, and the other one was sent to Kuppam.
It was discovered that the elephant, who was occasionally notorious for acting erratically, had just broken its chain and needed to be tranquillized before being brought back to its enclosure. Officials at the zoo claimed the elephant was not in "musth," a condition that causes bull elephants to seem restless, energised, and unpredictable. However, sources within the zoo claimed the elephant just underwent the condition.
