The previous video of the elephant smashing into a kitchen that went viral in June was also shared by ‘Now This’. The video showed the resident of the house, Ratchadawan Puengprasoppon getting the shock of her life when she heard crashing and banging sounds and found an elephant poking through her kitchen wall. The elephant was seen curiously running its tusk across the kitchen cabinets searching for anything edible. According to reports, the male elephant is named Boonchuay.
“A family in Thailand awoke to a hungry Asian elephant busting through their wall and rummaging in the kitchen. The elephant, which is reportedly known to occasionally cause trouble for humans in the area, was likely attracted to the smell of food,” ‘Now This’ captioned along with the video.

As per old media reports, Boonchuay is a frequent visitor at the Chalermkiatpattana village. “They come to visit quite often. They always come when there is the local market because they can smell food,” said Itthipon Thaimonkol, a park’s superintendent.
Meanwhile, Thai media reported that the same elephant had even paid a visit to Ratchadawan’s kitchen, causing damage worth almost 50,000 baht (approx. Rs 1, 11,629).
