Great storytelling in every milli second!

The drone shots were beautifully done too. I love the fact that the truck driver was not upset. He was even calm and kind to them.

The elephant is the national animal of Thailand. Including the flag in the past was an elephant. Elephants are riding vehicles and used in wars by kings and governors of various provinces of Thailand to protect their territories for hundreds of years, and for this reason, as mentioned above, it can be seen that in many national parks throughout the country. In the country of elephants, they are free where they live. But there will be some problems when they eat the vegetables planted by the farmers. It's not bad for Thai people, elephants are animals that we bond with. It's an animal that we respect. and is like a family from past to present❤

[@bigcountrymountainman9740]

I think the craziest thing about elephants is the fact that they never forget anything. Ever. Scientists don't understand how they can remember every single thing. As crazy as that sounds, it's like a human being remembering everything that has ever happened to them, every word they have ever spoken every thought they have ever had from birth. You can dig a hole in the ground, let's say 2 ft Deep by 2 ft wide and ride on the elephant or lead him toward the direction of the whole. When he comes to the whole you step over it, he will go around it. Immediately after he steps Over the Hole, take it and feel it in pack it down put leaves over top of it and go on about your day. A year later, take him on the same path and when he gets to that spot he will walk around it. It doesn't matter if grass is grown up over the area or something else. The elephant will go around instead of stepping on it

I don’t think that they have much of an option hahaha there are some videos of the elephants ramming their trucks

Too dangerous to drive around or worse honking. Normally if you found elephants crossing the road in some jungle area in Thailand . You must turn off the engine ., park the car at least100 meter away (if you have smaller car ) and be as quiet as possible . Then wait the elephants to cross the road.
