Tragically, Jiranan tripped as she fled with the elephant then stepping on her head and crushing her skull.

The attack on Wednesday in Phu Kradueng National Park shocked rangers who attended the scene and found the woman splayed on the grass.

Police Major General Pongpipat Siripornwiwat said cops sent a helicopter and questioned the friend over the attack.

The pal said Jiranan had been walking some 700ft (200m) ahead of her when she was attacked by the elephant.
