A shocking incident occurred at Khao Yai National Park when a family of wild elephants overturned a tourist’s car.
No one was inside the vehicle or injured. The incident, captured on a viral TikTok video, has sparked concerns about human-wildlife interactions within the park.
According to park officials, the elephants were drawn to the area by the scent of food prepared by the tourists. After failing to locate the food source, the animals became agitated and began to investigate the parked car. Their powerful trunks eventually managed to flip the vehicle.
Park rangers responded promptly to the incident and successfully herded the elephants back into the forest. The affected tourist has expressed understanding of the situation and has received assistance from the park authorities, including transportation of the damaged vehicle to Bangkok. (TNA)
