Elephants are naturally one of the most peaceful animals on earth. However, we all know that there are always two sides to a coin. While elephants are mostly polite and peaceful, they can become violent under certain circumstances. All elephants may become aggressive when sick, injured, or harassed. Recently, a woman was attacked by an elephant in a possibly brutal manner. A video clip of a few seconds is showcasing that incident in the best possible manner. To say that it has left the internet in splits would not be so wrong.
If you are curious to know about it, then you are in the right place. Read on to enlighten yourself.
The saying that you can never truly tame an animal is absolutely true. This video, which is making rounds around different social media platforms, is a testament to that. Indian Forest Service officer Susanta Nanda, who often shares intriguing wildlife content online, took to Twitter and shared an astounding video.
In the posted video, we can see how a woman was trying to lure a tusker with a bunch of bananas. She does not give the banana to the elephant and tries to tame him. However, this playfulness completely backfired on her as the tusker aggressively pushed her away with its heavy tusk.
While the video clip was barely for a few seconds, it was easy to decipher that the woman did face some pain after being attacked. Netizens, therefore, seemed to be concerned about the woman’s safety.
Some wrote how one should never invade the space of animals. Meanwhile, others wrote how the girl must have suffered fractures and what a grave mistake it was.
