He is still at large.
With a long memory and a thirst for bloodshed, Dhurbe, the Nepalese menace, is estimated to have killed over 25 people.
And what’s more terrible: the notorious – and rogue – Nepalese elephant has stalked the family of Shanichara Bote for years.
The tusker has killed four of his family members – 14 years apart — including two now, after they moved miles away to escape the homicidal beast.

Notorious Wild Elephant Stalks Nepal Family for Over a Decade, Tramples Two to Death 14 Years After Killing First Two Members – ReportThe New York Post reported:
“Bote’s nightmare began in December 2012, when Dhurbe — an infamous killer elephant whose human death toll is now up to 25 — fatally trampled the man’s parents in the Nepalese town of Madi near Chitwan National Park, the Kathmandu Post said.
The grief-stricken son packed up and moved himself and the rest of his family to safety, setting up his new homestead nine miles away, across the Rapti River and to Jagatpur, the outlet reported.
Earlier this month, Dhurbe tracked down the family and burst into their home, killing Bote’s daughter-in-law, Ashika Bote, 25, and his 4-year-old grandson, Bharat Bote.”

“Dhruve, one of Nepal’s most dangerous elephants near Chitwan National Park, becomes aggressive during hormonal periods while seeking food and alcohol.
In 2012, he destroyed 68 houses in a single day.
After a series of killings, Nepalese authorities issued a license to eliminate Dhruve. In 2012, the army was deployed to kill the elephant, but it escaped into the national park. The license is no longer valid.”
