An impressive video has emerged of a safari tracker waving a stick at an elephant when it gets too close to tourists in their safari car. <br /><br />The footage, shot in the Kruger National Park in South Africa in April 7, shows the elephant eventually backing up when it understands it is too close. <br /><br />"The experienced tracker sitting on the front of the open safari vehicle took his "Knobkierie" made out of wood and started to wave it at the elephant," the filmer wrote. <br /><br />"A Knobkierie is a short stick with a knob at the top, traditionally used as a weapon by the indigenous peoples of South Africa," they added.
