A Spanish tourist caused worldwide outrage in August 2025 when he posted a video of himself pouring a beer down the trunk of an elephant in Kenya. Close analysis revealed that the elephant was Bupa, a bull elephant rescued from a mass elephant cull in Zimbabwe in 1989, and current resident of the Ol Jogi Conservancy in the central county of Laikipia.

When contacted they said the incident was "unacceptable, dangerous and completely against our values". The Kenya Wildlife Service is also looking into the matter.
