An Angry Elephant Charging – When it comes to staying calm under pressure, few people know better than conservationist and television show host Ivan Carter. Born in Zimbabwe, Carter’s experience as a guide on safaris has given him an edge when it comes to understanding and dealing with wildlife.
In a recent video, Carter showed what it takes to stay calm in the face of a charging elephant. His experience as a guide and his vast knowledge of animals came into play as he calmly discussed what to do when faced with danger from an elephant.
Will a wild elephant charge your vehicle?
The answer to this question depends on a number of factors. Elephants are generally fearful creatures that have a strong sense of self-preservation, and will usually avoid any perceived threat or danger. However, if an elephant feels threatened, it may attack in order to protect itself or its family members. Additionally, elephants can be unpredictable and may even charge a vehicle if they feel startled or provoked. Therefore, it is best to maintain a safe distance and use caution when approaching an elephant in its natural habitat. Additionally, you should follow the advice of your tour guide or wildlife expert when navigating around wild elephants.
To help reduce the potential for conflict with wild elephants, it is important to stay alert and be aware of your surroundings. Make sure you keep a safe distance between yourself and the elephant, avoid loud noises or sudden movements, and never attempt to feed an elephant. Additionally, if an elephant charges your vehicle, it is best to stay inside the vehicle until it passes. If you must exit the vehicle for safety reasons, it is best to move away slowly and avoid making eye contact.
By understanding how to properly interact with wild elephants, you can help ensure that both humans and animals remain safe. Always remember to keep a respectful distance, stay alert and be aware of your surroundings when in the presence of a wild elephant. If you follow these tips, it is unlikely that an elephant will charge your vehicle.
