In Sri Lanka, an elephant attacked a car with Russians
According to the Telegram channel, the women stopped the car to let the animal pass. However, the elephant approached the car, hit the windshield with its trunk and broke it. Shards showered the passengers, causing them minor injuries.
In particular, according to reports, the "Kataragama" highway passes through the Yala National Park, and elephants can often be found there. Tourists are usually warned that animals may come to people and ask for treats. Therefore, you need to buy fruits in advance. So it often happens that elephants approach the car and stick their trunks into the cabin in anticipation of bananas, watermelons or melons.
Therefore, most likely, the behavior of this elephant was caused by disappointment due to the lack of delicacies.
