Elephants are also called gentle giants but they do hide an aggressive side. A video recently shared on Twitter shows an elephant trying to break into a car. The jumbo moves the car with its trunk like a toy in its attempt to break into the vehicle.
The social media user who posted the video speculated that there could be some food inside the car in a bid to understand the cause of the animal’s actions. The incident took place at Narengi Military Station in Guwahati.
The video was tweeted with the caption, “Just another day at the Narengi Military Station, Guwahati. Was he trying to break into the car to find food, or just a power push? When you coexist with wildlife, don’t keep food or any item with a strong scent in parked vehicles, even if doors and windows are closed.”

He likes playing with toys.
