A hungry elephant raids a cool box as shocked tourists look on. The large bull ventured into the clearing where groups of holidaymakers were on a hiking tour through the jungle. It made a bee line for a refreshments stand where food and drinks were being kept for the ground - and immediately snared a large red plastic box. Footage shows how the elephant dragged the cool box from the wooden hut then crushed it with its feet. The pachyderm then plundered the packages of sandwhiches and sticky rice that were being stored inside. The unusual scene was captured in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand, on January 16. One nervous tourist is heard saying ''Is he, er, can he be dangerous?'' The elephant grabbed its lunch then trudged back off among the trees.
