Villagers who lost their homes to elephants wake up on the floor of a neighbors house near Tezpur in Assam, eastern India January 6, 2004. Villagers have been forced to stay up lighting fires, banging tin cans, throwing firecrackers to keep elephants from destroying their crops, homes and somtimes killing people. India and its sacred elephants are threatened by the deforestation caused by encroachment of the reserved land and natural forests. As a result, wild elephants are rampaging through villages, killing people and destroying their homes and crops. (Ami Vitale)
