The main point of conflict between humans and elephants lies in the fields where crops are grown.
Villagers toil in the fields, waiting for the harvest time, only to have their yields entirely consumed by elephants.
At dusk, herds of elephants emerge from the forest, saunter into the cornfields, and skillfully peel the husks with their trunks before rolling the corn straight into their bellies.
Not only are elephants' trunks dexterous, but their senses are also acute; they can quickly determine if the corn is ripe, showing no interest in unripe ears.
Rangers, feeling sorry for the crops ravaged by elephants, would quickly gather a basket after the elephants had moved on, picking up the crushed corn left behind.
After picking for a while, they realized the elephants were looking back at them from a distance.
That night, the elephants made a surprise return attack, devouring all the corn in the field.
