Tap Lan National Park officials are actively working to treat a 600kg gaur suffering from a serious eye infection in Nakhon Ratchasima province.
The gaur, likely infected by insects, is in an inaccessible forest location, prompting officials to plan in-situ veterinary treatment and caution villagers against approaching it or letting cattle graze nearby to prevent disease transmission.

Today 15:02Key points summarised by AI
Lamphun illuminates its ancient city with two concurrent light festivals: the high-tech VIJIT Thailand @ LAMPHUN and the traditional Hundred Thousand Lantern Festival.
VIJIT Thailand @ LAMPHUN transforms historic landmarks into an outdoor gallery, using projections and multimedia to animate Lamphun's history, including Queen Chamadevi's story.
The Hundred Thousand Lantern Festival, part of Yi Peng, fills temples and streets with countless traditional lanterns, symbolizing Buddhist devotion and personal wishes.
These festivals offer a unique after-dark experience, blending contemporary light art with centuries-old Lanna traditions, connecting visitors to Lamphun's past and faith.
