Elephant charges man holding baby at San Diego Zoo
An elephant at the California zoo charged a man and his infant child after they sneaked into the animal's habitat.
A TikTok video of a woman trying to get a picture with elephants has gone viral after she was suddenly thrown to the ground.
Julia Candela, a 22-year-old, traveled to Thailand and visited an animal sanctuary in Chiang Mai, according to Jam Press.
While there, she visited the elephants — and attempted a photo with two of the enormous animals.
