Zimbabwe Bull Elephant crashes into tourists at Mana Pools

As we were eating brunch an elephant was eating pods off of the ground and as it approached we were told to stay very still, which we did. To CLARIFY, nobody was feeding the elephant and nobody threw anything. A pod fell from the tree behind where we were sitting, this is what the elephant was eating the entire time. The elephant which had poor eyesight was startled when it walked upon us. It then Swung its trunk and head and hit Shane and Stephen. We respected the elephants territory and this is their HOME. We love these amazing animals and support African tourism. We were lucky to walk away from this
