## Caption

A hungry elephant caused a chaotic scene in a grocery store in Thailand, when he strolled in from a nearby national park and brazenly helped himself to several snacks.⁣
⁣
The shocked shopkeepers could do little but call for the park rangers during the mammoth mischief as it chowed down nine bags of sweet rice crackers, a sandwich and some bananas worth an estimated total of 800 baht.⁣
⁣
The huge male is known to locals as Plai Biang Lek, and is a familiar sight on the fringes of the Kha Yai National Park. Known to enter people’s houses in search of food, this was the first time he’d gone into a store.⁣
⁣
The rangers managed to move him along eventually, leaving the elephant in the room as to who would pick up his bill.⁣
