In a statement released on Thursday, ZimParks also warned the villagers against trying to scare away the animals as they can attack people if provoked. ZimParks said:

Communities in the surrounding areas are being advised to remain calm, stop unnecessary movements and desist from any attempts to scare the elephants away.
The animals are dangerous and can pose a threat to life and property.
