There is a reason that zoos have fencing between you and the animals.
- They are wild animals
- Fences aren’t to just keep the animals in, they are to keep people out.
- The zoos try to create as closet to a natural habitat, as possible.
So here we have a stupid and irresponsible man and father who wanted to get a closer look at a wild elephant…holding his 2-year old child. As you will see the elephant doesn’t hold the same level of curiosity.
In the video, you can hear someone telling him to stop, as he was entering the habitat. Shortly after, the man was warned about the elephant that was charging him. The man tosses the child through the fencing and barely escaped the elephant’s tusks.
Amazingly, the man wasn’t booked on trespassing. Thankfully, though, police DID catch up with him and booked him on child cruelty.
