That's where animals like this should be seen - in their natural environment. Is that daddy at the back in the second image?

The title of your thread indicates that you posted the thread just for fun. So, I regret to inform you that the pair of photos provides the additional benefit of educating us about elephant behavior.

Some of us must be content with visiting the zoo.

Nice captures.

Is that daddy at the back in the second image?

Ah no. The daddies head off, the grownups are all females.

So, I regret to inform you that the pair of photos provides the additional benefit of educating us about elephant behavior.

Thanks, Mike. The thing is, I know there are many excellent photographers here, and I also know that these images won't win any prizes, but I hope they are interesting. Perhaps we need a new general thread title!
