You’ve been trunked!

This elephant may have watched one too many of Ashton Kutcher’s famous Punk’d shenanigans, deciding to catch a group of tourists off guard by sneaking up on them.

One thing’s for sure, they were in for a mammoth surprise!

The ginormous photobomb was caught on camera at the Imire Rhino and Wildlife Conservation in Zimbabwe.

The five women, Deb Sulzberger from Australia, Lisa Marie Winther from Norway and Brits Sarah Daly, Jane Burnett and Nicky Walker were oblivious to the seven-tonne bull elephant that loomed over them as they snapped away in the other direction.

The moment was captured by fellow volunteer Marcus Soderlund, 24, from Sweden.

“While they were posing for the cameras one of the other handlers got an elephant called Makavhuzi to go up behind them.”

“Eventually they noticed his presence and turned around and reacted with laughs, surprised looks and smiles.”

“Now that’s what you call big brother watching you.”
