In an unexpected encounter, three individuals who attempted to take a selfie with wild elephants faced a scary scenario. Agitated elephants chasing them resulted in the trio running for their lives. A related video that was shared online has since gone viral. The incident unfolded at Dudhwa National Park, Uttar Pradesh where the individuals attempted to take selfies while a herd of elephants crossed the road. When the elephants began to charge, they started running away. In the scramble to escape at high speed, one person fell but quickly got up again, showing signs of relief to be alive. Wildlife officials have always cautioned to be careful while visiting national forests. They warn that approaching wild animals can provoke them into attacking. Despite this, some individuals undertake unnecessary risks, leading to unpredictable accidents that later spread across social media.
