A cute baby elephant surprised a group of tourists in South Africa by casually threatening to charge them down.
A tourist captured the image of an unlucky calf on the back of a parked jeep crossing the jungle.
In the clip, the group tries to stay silent while filming, but the elephant is well aware of their presence and makes himself known.
It pretended to run towards them – as if in a bid to scare them away – but when the jeep didn’t budge, it quickly changed its mind and stopped.
Humorously, it turned away and began twirling the long grass in the trunk as if toying with the fact that it had just lunged at them.
Later in the clip, it again develops courage and tries a second time to scare the jeep away.
But again, it quickly stepped on the brakes before backing up.
The video ends with a giant elephant joining the young and providing some security for its presence.
However, the most embarrassing part of the ordeal was yet to come for the baby elephant, who again charged at the jeep, tripped, and nearly stumbled.
Finally, the elephant roamed the herd and returned to the forest.
