Elephant attacks
Elephant attacks are not uncommon. Last year, a Spanish tourist was mauled by a herd of elephants after a car drove into the animals in Pilansberg National Park in northeastern South Africa. At the beginning of last year, the 80-year-old American got into a car when he traveled with a group of tourists by one of the nature parks in Zambia. The deadliest victims of attacks by wild animals, mainly elephants, are recorded in Zimbabwe, where in 2023 50 people were killed and 85 people were seriously injured. National parks in South Africa attract more than a million tourists every year. The authority continues to warn that it is important for guided visitors to stay in their vehicles at all times and keep a safe distance from wildlife. Elephants are generally forgiving animals, but females can be aggressive when they are young. Any elephant can be dangerous when it is sick, injured by people, or frustrated or angry by people.
