According The Bangkok Post, a large bull elephant was seen attempting to lie down on a car load of tourists stopped on a road in Khao Yai in a bizarre incident that prompted national park staff to remind visitors how to react in the presence of the animals.
Duea, a 35-year-old tusker, was seen beside a car parked on Thanarat Road in the park in Pak Chong district of Nakhon Ratchasima province on Tuesday afternoon. The elephant then stepped across and behind the car before lowering its weight onto the roof.
The driver then inched the vehicle forward, away from the elephant. The video showed its rear window was broken, and the roof and body were damaged.
It was unclear how many people were in the car, but it appeared no one was injured.
