Tourist trampled to death while trying to take a picture of an elephant in Africa
A German tourist in Zimbabwe was trampled to death when she tried to take a picture of an elephant and ended up too close to the animal’s path.
The incident happened in Mana Pools National Park, where authorities said the 49-year-old German woman was part of a group who came across a herd of elephants when they entered the park. As the New York Post reported, the group was warned to stay away from the wild animals, but the woman did not heed the advice.
“We are always asking people to stay away from wild animals; they should keep a safe distance,” a park spokesman said.
