this elephant actually charged our van in Samburo National Gamepark-Kenya, but fortunately broke off the charge at the last second or i might not be here telling you about it.

great shot ! the posture is menacing, the head looks sculpted. i read somewhere that when a elephant REALLY charges it will curl the trunk right up against the mouth so as to protect it, but i think this looks real enough for me !
