A video that is viral on the internet right now shows the moment a hungry elephant stopped a bus in the middle of a road in order to steal some bananas.

The entire incident was caught on camera by a passenger that was inside the bus.

The video, which was filmed in Kataragama, Sri Lanka, shows the bus driver slowing down on approaching the elephant as it was standing in the middle of the road.

The bus stopped beside the elephant and the hilarious animal just went on to steal some food.

The elephant used his trunk to look for food and ended up getting bananas.

Passengers laughed on the bus as the elephant was looking for food.

After getting hold of the bananas, the driver got to rush the bus to safety to avoid any unfortunate incidents.

Despite being friendly sometimes, you have to keep in mind that they are still wild animals and a wrong move could make them feel unsafe.

The video that we are talking about was filmed in 2018.

It went viral again after it was shared on Twitter by Indian Forest Service officer Parveen Kaswan.

The video that Officer Kaswan posted has over 2,50,000 views on Twitter alone.
