Big Elephant Tusker Crushes Ground in Powerful Display

Nice bull.

It really is amazing how powerful they are. My wife and I watched a bull push down a good-sized tree in Namibia. No big deal at all. Just a gentle lean, and down it came.

When I was 20 yards from two young bulls tussling and spinning around it was like a couple of front-end loaders on the loose. They were snapping trees without even knowing it. We made tracks the other way very quickly. On our way out the PH gently commented, "They don't have to know were here to kill us." I'll never forget the sound of their tusks smacking in to each other.
 
very cool
but honestly dont understand wth they need to be so close
another accident waiting to happen!!!
admire from a fair and safe distance, no one needs to be 5m from any wild animals
