For generations, Asian elephants have travelled through the forests of Sherpur's border upazilas of Jhenaigati, Sreebardi, and Nalitabari, following ancient migration routes. Today, those routes have been disrupted by deforestation, climate change, and expanding human settlements. As natural food sources inside the forest become scarce, elephants increasingly enter nearby paddy fields in search of food. For local farmers, whose livelihoods depend on these crops, every encounter brings the risk of devastating losses.
This struggle for survival has turned shared landscapes into conflict zones where both people and elephants pay the price. Between 1995 and 2025, wild elephant attacks claimed at least 70 human lives and injured nearly 1,000 people across these three upazilas. During the same period, 39 wild elephants were killed in retaliation or conflict. This documentary explores how climate change, habitat loss, and human activities have intensified this fragile relationship, revealing that local communities and elephants are both victims of the same environmental crisis.
