Hat’s mine! Mac the elephant snatches woman’s hat and hides it in its mouth before returning it in cheeky prank

  • This woman visited Imire Rhino and Wildlife Conservancy Harare. 
  • While a friend was filming, the woman stood in front of an elephant. 
  • After just a short time, the elephant handed the woman the slightly soggy cap. 










Here’s the funny moment when an elephant stole the hat of a woman working in a conservation area. 

Unidentified woman was seen standing before the pachyderm, which grabbed her hat. 

After her hat was taken, she turned around and begged Mac to give it back. 

The woman was standing in front of Max the elephant at the Imire Wildlife Conservancy outside Harare, Zimbabwe

This was Max, the elephant from the Imire Wildlife Conservancy in Harare.

The elephant used his trunk to swipe the hat from the top of the woman's head

To take the hat off the top of the female’s head, the elephant used his trunk. 

After a few moments, the elephant removed the hat from his mouth and gave it back to the woman

After some time, the elephant took the hat out of his mouth and returned it to the woman.

This incident occurred at Harare’s Imire Rhino and Wildlife Conservancy in Zimbabwe. 

Mac made sure to take the hat out his mouth after a couple of seconds and returned it, having been slightly broken by the elephant. 

Because of her misfortune, she began to laugh. 

This wildlife center is situated 90 minutes away from Harare. It features rhinos and elephants. 

The park stated that its mission was to conserve endangered animals in Africa as well as all other wildlife. 

“We believe rural communities can prosper side-by-side, and work together to protect our natural heritage. 

“At Imire our goal is to improve the relationships between tourism and conservation projects as well as communities. This is achieved through sustainable long-term environmental management, community projects and other activities that make a lasting and positive impact on all. 

She is not the first to suffer elephant theft.

The animal holds up traffic, which is forced to wait behind the lorry as it takes the hay 

Traffic is unable to pass the animal, so it must wait in the back of the truck while it gets the hay. 

 A farmer in the Khao Yai National Park in Nakhon Ratchasima province, central Thailand was helpless when an elephant stole hay from his truck.

When he suspects that something isn’t quite right, the driver stops the car and the enormous creature quickly grabs a bale.

The animal then kicks the piece apart and throws bits over its back, before eating some.

The male elephant is enjoying its meal, and the truck driver follows him, causing a steady stream of cars to follow.

Kanchit Srinoppawan, Park boss, said that he asked an employee for help in buying hay so that he could mark the course of a marathon to be held in the region.

He stated that he was amazed at the timing of the elephant waiting by the road.
