March 10 (UPI) -- A camera set up to film an elephant's walk through a safari camp in Botswana apparently annoyed the pachyderm and received a strong kick.

The video shows an elephant walking through a camp at the Moremi Game Reserve, near a camera that had been left out to record the pachyderm.

The elephant appears to take notice of the camera and examines it with its trunk before kicking the GoPro with its leg.

"When this Elephant walked through camp I decided to attempt some up close footage. When he spotted my camera he could smell my scent and took his anger out with a good kick," the filmer wrote.
