Baby Elephant Dies During Rescue From Trap in Mondolkiri
by Phan Soumy | July 26, 2016 | អានជាភាសាខ្មែរ
A wild baby elephant died in Mondolkiri province early Monday morning after being found in a state of distress with a snare clamped to its leg, its rescuers said.
The 18-month-old Asian elephant bull calf, seen in photographs circulated online with a ring of hide torn off its left front leg, was no taller than the rangers who tried to save it.
An Environment Ministry ranger working inside Mondolkiri’s Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary was alerted to the elephant’s plight by a local villager on Sunday and immediately began arranging transport for the animal, the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) said.
The ranger was joined by a team of officers and veterinarians from several organizations, who had hoped to nurse the elephant back to health so that it could be moved, it said.
Chhith Sophal, director of the provincial environment department, said the team reached the wounded calf at about 3 p.m.
“When we arrived, the elephant looked very dehydrated. It appeared to have been trapped a long time ago, and it had an ulcer on its leg,” he said.
For two hours, the elephant was able to stand upright, and officers brought water and provided shade, Mr. Sophal said.

Baby elephant killed by snare in Mondulkiri
Tue, 26 July 2016
Vong Sokheng and Cristina Maza
A baby elephant died yesterday after being found snared in a poacher’s trap in the jungle along the border of Orang and Keo Seyma districts in Mondulkiri province.
The death of the wild elephant, thought to be about a year old, raised a red flag for many conservation groups concerned with the ability of local authorities to protect the endangered species.
“This incident again highlights the need to increase efforts to reduce snaring, as the loss of one elephant is a major loss for the globally endangered Asian elephant,” said Un Chakrey of the World Wild Life Foundation in Cambodia, who said the use of snares had only increased despite law enforcement efforts.
Local authorities tried to rescue the baby elephant after villagers reported it trapped deep in the jungle over the weekend, said Meak Vuthy, an official at the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS). But officials were forced to make the long journey by foot as the jungle roads were unsuitable for driving.
