On the afternoon of December 21, 2017, He Yongjie, a Chongqing tour group leader, was trampled to death by an elephant while trying to save tourists at the Pattaya Elephant Park in Thailand.

After the mahout in the elephant park found out, he immediately drove the tourists out of the scene. Unfortunately, the two tourists were unwilling and ran in to pull and touch the elephant's tail twice, causing the elephant to become enraged and chase them. After discovering this phenomenon, the team leader He Yongjie rushed forward to rescue the two tourists. Unfortunately, he was rolled up by the elephant's trunk and thrown heavily, and was trampled to death.
