The video has both amused and intrigued users. Some joked that the elephant could be a patient, who has come to the hospital for treatment. A user commented, “It was a surprise inspection visit to check if everything is well in the hospital is what I understand!” Another commented, “I think this happens when you occupies their habitat and make structures on that. It’s their land and want it back!”
