Abraham Thomas's rubber estate located in Kerala has doubled up as an elephant graveyard. It was out of his love for the jumbos and the belief that the carcass of a dead elephant should not be left to rot in the open that he decided to keep a portion of his estate as the burial ground for elephants. Elephants are deeply revered in India and are also considered lucky.
