No hapless walkers, safety lecture, coverage in midst of deadly elephant attack
Following Monday, December 23, the Department of National Parks, Wildlife, and Plant Conservation will resume the famed Phu Kradueng hills in Loei territory to customers.
After an elephant fatally struck a customer walking a trail on December 11, it was closed next Friday.
Guests to the northeast visitor interest are being protected by new safety measures, according to director-general Attapon Charoenchansa.
Readers will be notified of health instructions and any warnings about potential danger from wild elephants in a LINE chat game room where they will be invited and registered.
Each customer will also be required to pay a 10-baht healthcare premium for 300, 000-baht policy.
Tourists must travel in a group of at least three people, stay on designated trails, and just enter designated locations.
To secure a two-kilometer circle of every tourist destination, park rangers may be stationed in quick-movement groups.
Because they have been shown to attract exotic animals, Mr. Attapon said, there won’t be any garbage cans on Phu Kradueng.  ,
