Guwahati, Jun 12, 2021: In a rather peculiar incident, a wild elephant was spotted eating a helmet in Guwahati as a video of the episode has gone viral on social media. The elephant mistook the helmet for food and was seen eating it.

 

The bizarre incident occurred in the Satgaon army camp near Narangi in Guwahati.

As seen in the video, the elephant approached a parked bike in the army camp and pulled the helmet, which was rested on the rear view mirror stalk, with its trunk. Thereafter, it put the helmet in its mouth and began eating it before walking away from the spot.

 

“I lost my helmet. How will I go now?” the owner of the vehicle was heard saying in the backdrop.

Reports suggest that wild elephants often walk out of the nearby Amchang Wildlife Sanctuary in order to look for food.

This wild elephant, also, had walked out of the Amchang Wildlife Sanctuary, entered the army camp, and took the helmet.

The incident was captured by the owner of the helmet on his phone and the clip has been doing the rounds of the internet.
