Elephant uses sheer strength to pull out a Toyota Fortuner SUV stuck in a river!

A video of an elephant rescuing a Toyota Fortuner SUV stuck in a river is going viral on social media. The incredible rescue took place in Palakkad, Kerala, and highlights the strength and intelligence of elephants in a real-world situation.

Elephant Pulls Out Toyota Fortuner Using Its Trunk

In the short clip, a white first-generation Toyota Fortuner is seen stuck in the middle of a river. All wheels, except the front left, were submerged in water, making it impossible to move the SUV without external help.

To rescue the vehicle, a mahout (an elephant caretaker and trainer) arrived with a well-known elephant named Thirvegappura Sankaranarayanan, popular in the Palakkad region. The mahout guided the elephant to assist in pulling the vehicle out.

A strong rope was tied to the front axle of the Toyota Fortuner. The elephant, under the mahout’s command, grabbed the rope with its trunk and started pulling. In the video, the sheer power of the elephant can be seen as it almost lifts the heavy SUV with ease. After a couple of strong pulls, the Toyota Fortuner was finally dragged out of the river successfully.

Final Thoughts

This viral video of an elephant rescuing a Toyota Fortuner in Kerala has amazed viewers across the country. It not only showcases the strength of the majestic animal but also highlights the unique bond between the elephant and its mahout. The clip is a perfect reminder of how traditional methods and natural strength can still solve modern-day problems in extraordinary ways.
