Kerala elephant Konni Surendran
In 1999, the forest rangers found this 7-month-old baby elephant abandoned by the herd of elephants in the Sabarimala forest. Later he grew up as Konni Surendran in the Konni Elephant Cot.
His beautiful black color, long trunk, wide and beautiful tusks, and his stature and grace beyond his years made him a favorite among elephant lovers at an early age.
In 2018, Surendran was taken to Tamil Nadu for Kumki training. Many elephant lovers were against taking him to Tamil Nadu. But Surendran was taken with the assurance that he would be brought back to Konni after completing the training, but after completing the training, Surendran was transferred to Kumki Training Center in Wayanad.
