Johannesburg - An elephant that killed a KwaZulu-Natal Wildlife employee earlier this month has been put down, Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife said on Tuesday.

KZN Wildlife's Andrew Zaloumis said they had been monitoring her behaviour since the incident.

"While most unfortunate, any elephant showing unduly aggressive behaviour has to be destroyed. But, only after a thorough evaluation of the circumstances surrounding any incident involving the particular animal," Zaloumis said.

On November 3, five wildlife employees were attacked by the elephant.

"The cab of the truck was almost destroyed," said Zaloumis.

A detailed forensic examination of the truck produced chips of ivory from the attacking elephant's tusks.

"The destroyed female was not the matriarch of the herd, and Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife elephant experts are confident that with the aggressive female removed the herd will settle down once more," he said.

How many people believe this bullshit about matching the ivory to the jeep?

Can we say, profit for = ivory?

Gore em girl, and, I hope she has sisters that know who got their sister....
