 A 79-year-old woman killed by Bull Elephant while on safari.


According to official reports a safari truck carrying 6 tourists began being stalked by a 5 ton,10 foot tall Bull Elephant. The guide tried to evade the elephant and sped away. 


After approximately a half mile he was forced to stop when his route became blocked.


Unfortunately the elephant caught up with them and began knocking the truck around like a child's toy. The elephant then flipped the car over. Sadly, a 79-year-old American tourist, Gail Mattson, passed away as a result of injuries sustained.  Four other tourists sustained minor injuries.


The names of all individuals have not been released at this point.


Our thoughts are with Gail and her entire family.
