A Spanish tourist has been trampled to death by elephants in a South African national park after apparently trying to take pictures of a breeding herd that included three calves.
The 43-year-old man was killed on Sunday morning at Pilanesberg national park about 130 miles (210km) north-west of Johannesburg.
According to park officials, the man, who was with three friends, climbed out of his vehicle and walked towards the animals to take photos.
“Despite warnings from his fellow passengers, and occupants from two other vehicles that were at the sighting, he unfortunately did not heed their warnings,” the North West province’s parks and tourism board said in a statement.
Funny

became such a popular sentiment among the spanish, while also out doing stupid shit in other countries, as a tourist.Maybe “tourists go home” was what the elephants were trumpeting as he got trampled to death

Apparently people will downvote you for one person’s right to use one city to abstract an entire country filled with different nations.
