If you go somewhere with wild animals, you shouldn’t be *too* surprised when you’re attacked by, well, a wild animal. No matter how cute an animal might seem, there’s always a chance that it could suddenly declare you an enemy and decide to go into Terminator mode — as people keep having to learn about deer.

In this case, a group of tourists in Sri Lanka were driving toward an elephant when the beast decided that he wanted a closer look — and so, he smashed through the window of their car.
