When a massive elephant has grown weary of your presence, you had better leave.
The accompanying footage, shared by Frontline Safari Tanzania, shows an elephant using its size, vocalizations, its trunk, and even its tusks to persuade a safari vehicle to clear out of its space.
The safari company stated in its description that elephants are typically "gentle giants" and generally "peaceful." But the company added: "They are also wild, massive, and powerful creatures."

The footage shows the elephant’s size in relation to that of the safari vehicle. Viewers might also be amused to watch the elephant raise its trunk in a gesture of disdain, and a tusk to clip the vehicle for good
measure.
More from Frontline Safari Tanzania: "If a vehicle approaches too closely, corners them, or blocks their path of travel especially on narrow park tracks, the elephant may feel it has no room to escape. When an animal cannot run away, its survival instinct triggers the fight response, leading to a charge."
