At 6 pm, the wild elephant approached the bus, looked inside, and hit the window with its head, according to the source. The driver was unhurt.

On Sunday morning, the elephant pushed a car off the road, the report added.

Wang Tongxing, deputy director of the Menghai public security bureau, attributed the incidents to the migration season.

According to Chen Mingyong, a professor in Yunnan University’s Life Sciences Department who has studied Asian elephants for years, wild elephants usually migrate between November and April when food is scarce.
