Mother Elephant Confronts Bus While Herd Crosses Road

An angry elephant stood face-to-face with a bus travelling to Calicut, India, on November 14, blocking its passage while a herd of young elephants crossed the road. Dileep Thekkethil was a passenger on the bus and captured this video of the elephant approaching the passengers with steps that shook the ground. The driver quickly steered his vehicle away from the protective animal, much to the relief of everyone on board. Credit: YouTube/Dileep Thekkethil
