A hungry giraffe at United Kingdom's West Midland Safari Park had its head stuck in a car window of a visitor and broke the glass in a bid to pull away.
The shocking incident was recorded, Mohamed Naser and his wife, as they filmed the giraffe getting up-close the other car during the safari drive-through on April 8.
The video shows the giraffe putting its head right in the other car as the girl sitting inside was feeding the long-legged creature some food.
"The girl had food in her hand, she was feeding the giraffe by sticking her hand out of the car. The giraffe knew that she had food in her hand so he... stuck his head in the car," Naser was quoted as saying in NDTV.
Naser added that the driver of the car panicked and tried to roll up the car window on the passenger side. The giraffe tried to pull its head out from the car window, causing the glass to break and small pieces flying everywhere including on the giraffe. "The boyfriend panicked... he didn't realise that the giraffe had already entered the car." Naser said.
Naser posted the video on his YouTube channel and called it a 'freak accident'. He confirmed that the giraffe was 'perfectly fine'. "Zookeepers drove over and used food as bait to get a close up of the giraffe's head. They saw nothing, so they let it be," Naser explained.
