Mr Nanda posted the video with a stern warning.
In a horrifying incident, four men narrowly escaped a dangerous scenario after attempting to get close to a herd of wild elephants. In the video shared by Indian Forest Service officer Sushant Nanda, a group of tourists can be seen approaching a herd of elephants inside the forest.
The video shows an elephant crossing the road with some calves. Tourists can be heard making strange sounds from their mouths. The noise startled the elephants and the elephants increased their pace, in fact, one of them even tried to move towards the group. Realizing that they were in mortal danger, people also tried to flee the scene.
Mr Nanda posted the video with a stern warning. He wrote, “Mob behavior is ridiculous. Herd of elephants with small calf can be highly aggressive. Don’t put your life at stake. Allow them safe passage. First right is theirs.”
