Curious elephant approaches tourists' vehicles in Thailand

KHAO YAI NATIONAL PARK, Thailand, Jan. 3 (UPI) -- An elephant at a national park in Thailand was filmed approaching tourists' cars in an apparent attempt to say "hello" -- or find some snacks.

The video, filmed last year, shows an elephant walking down a road passing through Khao Yai National Park.

The elephant approaches vehicles filled with tourists and appears to be using its trunk in an attempt to get into one of the SUVs.

The filmer can be heard explaining the elephant appears to be trying to get some food that's apparently visible inside the vehicle.
