There are many important lessons to be learned from the spectacle of a drunken man at the Udawalawe National Park in Sri Lanka picking a fight with an elephant, chief among them: do not pick fights with an elephant–particularly an elephant that has already killed someone, as onlookers warn in this video.
In the elephant’s defense, he put up with a lot of verbal abuse from this man before losing his temper. Also, the elephant settles for giving his antagonist one good stomp and walking away, rather than crushing him to a pulp. The man appears to have lost an ear in the altercation.
