"We have now formed a team of thirty people armed with crackers to try and chase away the elephants as they are out to avenge the death of their mate," U.R. Biswas, Jharkhand's leading forests official, said in Ranchi.

Atleast the village people are armed with crackers....  :laugh:

I think a "cracker" is, in this case, some kind of noisemaker to scare the aforementioned ephelants, not the saltine or southern variety.

Just exterminate them already.  I'm all for protecting animals and their habitat but if they start trampling my village it's time to harvest some tusks.

Regarding the crackers, maybe the elephants don't like the sound of crunchy things under their feet?  Or, maybe it's the salt.  :dunno_white:  Are they trying to watch their weight?
