The head of Thailand's Kaeng Krachan national park in Petchaburi said that rangers were called to a tourist area after two elephants were holding up the traffic. 

 

The elephants - one known to rangers as "Jao Bunmee" - were squaring off at kilometer 21 on the Phusai to Sai-en road leading to the popular tourist attraction of Pala-u waterfall. 

 

Park chief Mana Phermphoon said that still photography and a video clip of the incident was rarely seen evidence of an annual territorial dispute among wild elephants.

i have been on this road many times. a elephant came out of the jungle and started chasing me when I slowed down to look at it. I was on my motorcycle. The elephant would not give up. Followed me for 300 meters.

I've heard lots of reports about elephants chasing people on motorbikes.

 

Nobody knows how the pachyderms learned to ride.
