The Elephant and the Tragopan- Vikram Seth - 114 / 365 of reading one short story every day.

The Elephant and the Tragopan- Vikram Seth


In this story, Vikram Seth presents the views of the animal kingdom about the human race, though an elephant and a tragopan.
Through a sparrow, the tragopan hears that men around their forest, plan to redevelop the area. Fearing the loss of their habitat, the animals decide to protest. Ultimately the animals are killed and this incident becomes news. 
Imitating the situation happening around us, the story is a sad portrayal of the world and of the people who live, work and die for the environment as well for the social causes.
