‘Only a monster can do this’: Kohli, Chhetri on Kerala elephant killing

TIL Desk Sports/ India skipper Virat Kohli, on Wednesday, said he was ‘appalled’ after hearing about the death of a pregnant elephant in Mallapuram, Kerala who ate cracker-stuffed pineapple allegedly given by a local.

Kohli appealed to treat animals with love and urged to stop violence against them. “Appalled to hear about what happened in Kerala. Let’s treat our animals with love and bring an end to these cowardly acts,” he tweeted.

India football skipper Sunil Chhetri asked how humans can term themselves as an evolved species after doing what they did to a pregnant elephant in Mallapuram, Kerala.

“She was a harmless, pregnant Elephant. That makes the people who did what they did, monsters and I hope so hard that they pay a price. We keep failing nature over and over again. Remind me how we’re the more evolved species,” Chhetri tweeted.
