Karnataka spends Rs 22 lakh to radio collar each wild jumbo

For instance, the state spends at least Rs 22 lakh on capturing and radio-collaring each wild elephant. Of this, Rs 7 lakh is spent on each radio collar imported from South Africa. These collars, widely seen as alternative to translocation, are equipped with a radio transmitter with a three-year battery life.
