Elephant chases the forest department jeep in anger; Watch video

A video of an aggravated elephant near the Thadagam area in Tamil Nadu in which it can be seen chasing the forest department jeep has shocked the internet. In the 1 minute and 20-second-long clip shared by the Indian Forest officer Susanta Nanda, the aggravated beast can be seen chasing the forest officials as they struggle to speed away in order to avert the accident.  

With over 3.5k views, Susanta captioned the video saying that forest life wasn’t all about beauty but also challenges when the beasts teach some important life lessons. He added that the crew was lucky that they made it out unharmed. Twitter users poured a slew of reaction on the video saying that there was a probability that the siren on the jeep must have annoyed the creature. The patrol jeep can be seen driving on the reverse gear as the crew hurries to save their lives from the wrath of the gigantic elephant in the national reserve. They, however, have a close call with the animal but somehow manage to escape.
