A young elephant bull, intent on stamping his newly realised authority on the humans (and their vehicles) visiting the Pilanesberg National Park, in the North West Province of South Africa. He followed us in this fashion for quite a distance, letting us know every now and then, with a shake of the ears or a quickened pace or two, that our presence on his turf is not appreciated.


Another fantastic shot… finally catching up. 🙂
