Charging Elephant Breaks Tourist Vehicles Windscreen

This is the moment a huge elephant backs away from a tourist vehicle after charging at the windscreen and smashing it to pieces.

The startling incident took place at the Bandipur National Park in the state of Karnataka in south-western India as a group of tourists were on a safari.

Local media report an adult Asian elephant in the park charged at the safari vehicle and in the video the windscreen can be heard smashing as the animal backs away.
