As promised, we are posting this video of a wild elephant crossing the road in Jaldapara, West Bengal, India. I spotted it coming through the forest as we were driving back to the tea garden. The driver quickly backed the vehicle up so we could capture it on video. David took a risk by getting out of the Bolero and walking back towards it. A few days earlier on this same road an elephant crushed a car to bits in anger (thankfully the passengers had all fled and no one was hurt). This male is a "loner" because he was kicked out of his family for bad behavior. It's fun to tell the story now, but I admit that I was scared at the time! Enjoy! :)
