A hungry wild elephant stopped cars and stole fruit from the back of a pickup truck.

Footage shows the animal causing heavy traffic along a road and taking fresh produce wrapped in cellophane on the back of one of the vehicles in Sa Kaeo province, Thailand, on April 11.

It unwrapped the plastic from the food and ate its free meal.

As of 2023, there are an estimated 3,084-3,500 wild elephants in Thailand. The population has been increasing in recent years, but it is still a fraction of the estimated 300,000 wild elephants that lived in Thailand at the beginning of the 20th century. The main threats to wild elephants in Thailand are habitat loss and fragmentation, poaching, and conflict with humans.
