A wild elephant was found dead in Batkuchi Tilapara area of Madhutila Eco Park near Nalitabari border in Sherpur on Thursday night.

The Forest Department and locals suspected that the elephant died after being electrocuted when it came down from the hills to look for food at night.

On Thursday, a group of elephants descended from the hills while the farmers set up a generator's electrical connection wire in the field to deter the elephants.

Later, they came to know that the elephant died around 10:00pm and informed the forest department, said Rafiqul Islam, Madhutila range officer.

He said they are looking into the incident.
