Chaiwat In-on, assistant chief of Bannang Sata, was alerted at 7.30am of the death of Sao Somyos, a resident of Moo 5 village in Tambon Tham Thalu.
The man’s severely damaged body was lying near his hut on the rubber plantation, surrounded by elephant footprints.
Sansern Thep-osoth, chief of Bang Lang National Park, said the animal was a wild elephant that had crossed through the border forest from Malaysia.
A wild elephant killed another villager in Yala’s Betong district several months ago, he noted.
