A tourist van was charged at by an elephant that suddenly emerged from the bush in Sri Lanka yesterday (December 11th).
The event took place at Culp Temple Road inside the Yala National Park, as a tour van was driving to the Situlpauwa temple and was ambushed by a notorious elephant named Nitra.
Nitra stopped the vehicle and searched the passenger area for food items with its trunk. After a short while the driver was able to speed off with no one injured.
The road is reportedly a regular site for elephants to approach vehicles to steal food.
