After a few moments, when the tusker gives up and walks away into the wild, the tourists' takes a sigh of relief. Along with the video, Ms Sahu wrote, “I am told this is in Kabini! Hats off to the driver deft handling of the situation with a cool mind is commendable. Source- shared by a friend.”

Why can't they be left in peace as they don't encroach the humans territory but we do always. The animals are always friendly with the tribal population who know their limits.” Another wrote, “Seriously the driver deserve for his calm and composure. The reaction of the guy sitting next to the driver.” “Yes. Amazing handling by the driver. Decades of experience with Jungle Lodges. This happened today. This elephant charged every vehicle. He was in full musth.”
