Curious elephant sniffs tour group in South Africa
Tourists at a national park in South Africa got an unexpected inspection when a wild elephant walked up and started sniffing them.

Some tourists at Kruger National Park in South Africa got an unexpected inspection.

Video posted on YouTube by Kruger Sightings shows a wild elephant casually walked up to their safari tour vehicle and began sniffing the occupants with its trunk.

The driver and tourists remained very still.

The African elephant's sense of smell is said to be four times as sensitive as a bloodhound's.

After deciding there was nothing interesting about the tour, the elephant turned and walked away.
