^h English (en)	[[Human–wildlife conflict\|Conflicts]] between farmers and elephants have long been widespread in [[List of sovereign states and dependent territories in Africa\|African]] and [[List of sovereign states and dependent territories in Asia\|Asian]] countries, where elephants nightly destroy crops, raid grain houses, and sometimes kill people. Farmers have found the use of chilies effective in crop defense against elephants. Elephants do not like capsaicin due to their large and sensitive [[Olfaction\|olfactory]] and nasal system. The smell of chili causes them discomfort and deters them from feeding on the crops. By planting a few rows of the fruit around valuable crops, farmers create a buffer zone through which the elephants are reluctant to pass. Chili dung bombs are also used for this purpose. They are bricks made of mixing dung and chili, and are burned, creating a noxious smoke that keeps hungry elephants out of farmers' fields. This can lessen dangerous physical confrontation between people and elephants.
^h Japanese (ja)	[[:en:Human–wildlife conflict\|農民とゾウの衝突]]は、[[:en:List of sovereign states and dependent territories in Africa\|アフリカ]]や[[:en:List of sovereign states and dependent territories in Asia\|アジア]]の国々で長年広範にわたっており、ゾウは夜間に作物を破壊し、穀物倉庫を襲撃し、時には人々を殺害する。農民は、ゾウに対する作物の防御にトウガラシが効果的であることを発見している。ゾウは、その大きく敏感な[[Olfaction/ja\|嗅覚]]および鼻のシステムにより、カプサイシンを好まない。トウガラシの匂いはゾウに不快感を与え、作物を食べるのを思いとどまらせる。貴重な作物の周りに数列のトウガラシを植えることで、農民はゾウが通りたがらない緩衝地帯を作り出す。チリ糞爆弾もこの目的で使用される。これらは糞とチリを混ぜて作ったレンガで、燃やすと有害な煙を発生させ、空腹のゾウを農民の畑から遠ざける。これにより、人々とゾウの間の危険な物理的衝突を減らすことができる。
