It was in October last year when Durga – who was three-month-old then -- lost her way after the herd she was moving with was attacked by honey bees. She was badly injured and for days after the near-fatal bee attack, she roamed around, in pain, looking for her family. The incident happened in the forests of Bijnaur, nearly 450 kms from Lucknow. Luckily, she was spotted by some forest officials, who rescued and brought her to Dudhwa National park
