Sure, let's just get the elephant drunk, what could possibly go wrong?
Geez, that sounds like the dude is looking for a Darwin Award...
Pathetic, hope they arrest the guy.

I imagine it takes A LOT of beer to get an elephant tipsy.
Indeed, I'd imagine so. Still, if he had actually gotten away with that and hadn't been caught and posted online, he might have come back another day with a gallon or more beer..
Point is, that's not a very smart thing to do, no matter how little or much beer it was. Hell, elephants use their trunks for water, that's natural. But have you ever had beer go up your nose? The stuff burns, how would anyone guess whether beer would or wouldn't burn the elephant's trunk and make the elephant freak out...
Forced?
Don't animals enjoy booze as much as the "smart" monkeys?
Certain bird species go out of their way to find things fermenting in trees.
Oh please.
Yes you shouldn't feed beer to animals.
Yes this tourist should be charged with interfering with wildlife or whatever relevant local law exists.
Yes changes should be made to avoid this type of interaction in future.
However, "forced" is clearly the wrong verb here, and I don't think a few hundred ml is going to harm a several thousand kilo animal.
Surprised that the the bloke was Spanish.
Was expecting it to be a moronic American
Can an elephant not spit out liquid poured into their trunks?
Now force the bellend to drink a few litres of the elephant’s piss.
Tourists are terorirts
I’m just gunna leave this here.
