When a Crocodile Eats the SunMore Elephant Encounters: The morning before we walked with elephants. Benson had me out of the truck and quietly bobbing and weaving around a herd. We walked around the lead male and crossed a little valley and watched the herd feed. There must have been about thirty picking their way towards the water. Every once in awhile the breeze would change and an elephant would raise its head and trunk and catch our scent but they remained unimpressed - could be the combined smell of 100 percent Deet and suntan lotion! What continues to amaze me is how you can be staring at an elephant as it walks past and not hear it. This is especially true as it goes dark and silent shapes move past you on the way to and from water. | Permalink |
