Haldwani, Oct. 5 -- The Uttarakhand forest department has decided to relocate two elephant calves found at separate locations in the Corbett landscape forests to Corbett National Park, forest officials said, adding a letter has been written to the Chief Wildlife Warden, and both elephants will be moved as soon as permission is received. Terai Central Forest Division sub-divisional officer Shashidev said, "On January 17, 2025, a three-month-old elephant calf was found injured near the Haripura Reservoir in Udham Singh Nagar district. The forest team brought the calf to Sanjay Van and treated it. Forest personnel later named the calf Raja."

Forest personnel attempted to reunite the calf with the herd, but the elephants refused to let it join. Following this, the forest team also brought the calf to Sanjay Van and named it Rustam. "Now Raja is 11 months old and Rustam is 9 months old. Both are currently living in Sanjay Van under Tanda forest range. They are kept within solar fencing. A deputy ranger and two forest officials have been deployed to care for them. However, as soon as they are taken out of the enclosure, they run away into the forest, making their upkeep and care difficult," she said. SDO Shashidev further said, "Corbett National Park is a suitable habitat for these elephants. Several elephants are being trained by mahouts in the Dhikala Range of the Central Wildlife Warden. They will also be empl- oyed there, ensuring their good care. A letter has been written to the Chief Wildlife Warden in this regard. The elephants will be relocated as soon as permission is obtained." The Shivalik Elephant Corridor, located within the Corbett landscape, allows elephants to travel from Corbett National Park through Banna Kheda, Tanda forest, the banks of the Gaula River, and the Nandhaur Wildlife Sanctuary to the Nepal border. However, the corridor has been blocked at several places due to construction....
