Terrifying moment wild elephants charge screaming tourists in Sri Lanka

This is the terrifying moment two wild elephants charged a safari vehicle full of tourists in northern Sri Lanka.

The incident took place at the Minneriya National Park in North Central Province on June 4th.

According to reports, a group of safari-goers was travelling through the park when they noticed a herd of wild elephants in the distance.

It was almost dark with not many vehicles around, they said.

Suddenly, two of the elephants charged at the jeep and gave chase.

Fortunately, the driver of the jeep managed to speed away before the jumbos could do any damage.
