A wild elephant emerged from the bushes to chase a tourist vehicle on a rural road in south India yesterday (April 1). <br /><br />The incident took place while the vehicle was travelling fm Udagamandalam to Adhivasi village in Tamil Nadu state, when the group was chased by a wild elephant for some distance. <br /><br />There is currently a drought in the Masinakudi forest area near Udagamandalam, causing many wild animals to travel searching for water and greenery. <br /><br />Reportedly a group of wild elephants crossed the road in Masinapalli near to Adhivasi village and entered the Mudumalai Forest Tiger sanctuary, when they were interrupted by the passing tourist vehicle. <br /><br />After the rest of the herd crossed, one female elephant broke off to suddenly chase the tourists, terrifying the whole group.
