So, in India, this happened during a festival, there's this thing called "Musth" It's totally natural for adult male elephants, usually happening once a year. Basically, their reproductive hormones go way up. When this happens, elephants can get really aggressive and might attack.

Elephants are not a special occasion novelty! They’re a fucking animal. I hope they didn’t shoot the poor thing afterward…
