Do elephants eat paan? This jumbo from Sagar, Madhya Pradesh, loves chewing betel leaf. You’ll have to watch the video to believe it.
This elephant has been chewing paan for around 15 years now. The mahout says that he rides into town on the elephant every day. On his way, he halts at several paan shops so that the pachyderm can get some of his favourite treat.
No wonder these paan shop owners love this adorable guest who visits their shop regularly. Watch them prepare a big bundle of juicy paan leaves for their special guest. It’ll make you wish you could feed him too.
