Elephants Stealing Sugarcanes From Truck:
Sunisa Champangern who captured the 'very funny' moment was quoted as saying, "I've occasionally seen elephants being transported before but it was a coincidence that they stopped next to a truck with food on. They were reaching across to grab a snack from the other lorry. It was carrying sugarcane from a farm. I think the driver will have a hard time explaining why some of the crops are missing. I thought it was very funny to watch."
This is not the first time elephants stole sugarcanes from trucks carrying them. At multiple occasions, they have been caught on camera taking out snacks for them. Thailand has 3,000 and 4,000 elephants and half live in the wild in national parks while the others are domesticated.
