A herd of elephants retaliated against a car in Malaysia after it struck one of the babies.
AdvertisementA herd of elephants in Malaysia smashed up a car after it struck one of their babies on Sunday night.
That (frankly understandable) response shows how the highly emotional animals will do anything to protect their own, an elephant advocate said.
Three people were driving in a compact car when they struck the elephant calf in Gerik, Malaysia, on Sunday night, CNN reported, citing local authorities.
"If a calf even as much as squeaks, everybody has to run over and see whether it's okay," Poole told BI.
