This Elephant was clearly going to win this war! In So. Africa during a safari on a rainy day where the trails were muddy and slippery, we encountered a very intense 20 minutes being charged and ready to attack. hint: Never mess with a horny elephant ... lol

    people who go on these driving safari's need information and it should be a requirement (for licensing approval) that a safari company must educate and hold themselves and their customers accountable for their interactions with these powerful and wild beasts...these game reserves are not there to amuse and titillate thrill seekers...they are there to defend the shrinking footprint of the living world and the web of life that makes our lives on the planet even remotely feasible.

The lands & Animals are protected by the Government. Ghis is their LAND if you found even as throwing a stone to shoo them inthe protected areas its an instant hefty fine or 6 months jail your choice. Ghis includes those Great White Hunters who come to Africa for a different kind of Safari, i lnow it happens in South Africa & us too but in a Forbidden Capacity where if youre caught no fine straight Jail time.. These are the ones that actually go hunting to Kill the Wild Animals why you ask? To take a picture with their kill🤬 I Mean Really? At this day & age? We’re already killling the Land, Air,Oceans full of Plastic killing even the besutiful Dolphins Seals other Fish even Sharks caught in this tangled net- plastic- carton- ropes- wrecks/ bodies thrown in their living environment. Is bad enough.evven little penguins!The last Great White i saw taking a picture with her kill Broke my heart😩😭the kill the harmless absolute picture of a tall Graceful beautiful animal with unique patterns completely different to most of the others totally harmless but it also represents Tanzania in its court of Arms just like the Eagle is to America, & still the Eagle is still more aggressive than this amazin & & unusually tall animal the Giraffe , why on Earth would wanna kill one of these non provoking beatiful and graceful who havent got the gusto the Lions, Hippos, Elephants, Fastest Cat in the World Cheetah, dont worry even a pack of just African Dogs on your case cancel Chistmas. But a Giraffe!! Come on have you seen them fight, it is an absolute nightmare to watch they use theyre long necks to bash each other no strategy with those lanky long legs i look & wonder how they can stay up with such forceful power hits on their neck & bodies although sometimes a kick or two helps if you can get one in! Lol. This lady hunter had got her wish a massive was laying on her feet lots of photos takenetc Strange didnt see anyone show any one showing somekind of remorse for killling this unique animal for nothing. In places where you treat a common dog easily found anywhere in the world including the horribly abused & abandoned ones better then A rare & unique animal.one small wonder of the Universeyou obliterate for supeficial reason as well as disrespecting the animal representing Tanzania, a country you’ve just been visiting completely ignoring the countries National Park Regulations with the help of some corrupt guides i mmight add. Tanzania has these treats i worked in most of this places f to with a Band That had a contract to play music in lodges & Hotels. Ill start with the big one which has unfotunately succumed to Global warming to an extent. This is the Amazing 1)Mount Kilimanjaro ( highest mount in Africa) 2) We have part of the Rift Valley run thru our country 3) we have Olduvai Gorge for a nthropologists this is where Dr Leakey Said is where there first man came from! 4) if you look at the map of Africa Tanzania is the only country surrounded by three Lakes to NorthLake Victoria we share that with Uganda, which Idi Amin didnt like wanted it for Uganda but Tanzania soon let him know which belonged to Uganda. Lake Victoria is where the beggining of Nile! To the left of the indian Ocean is another huge Bordering lake to Tanzania used to be Lake Lake Tanganyika where Dr Stanley finally lound Explorer Livingstone Greeting him with the famous “Dr Livinstone i Presume! & proceeded to look atter the sick Livingstone.

    No the guide did right. You don't reward the elephant by his behavior at charging the vehicle by driving away, then he will do it to all vehicles and next time might just make contact and hurt people. They gave him his distance only after he backed off, so he wouldn't think he can do this to other safari vehicles. The tourists are what is helping save and preserve these animals. By revving up engine that is saying to elephant, hey, you back off, we aren't bothering you or coming closer, so you back off and your not going intimidate me. Elephant aggressive behavior that is allowed to go unchecked is not good for tourist if money don't come in because of aggressive elephant that wants charge and push around it's authority

Do you even know because of our selfishness polar bears are affected heading towards extinction as they don’t have much ice as before even in their short summer, and snow leopards in Himalayan mountains have tough time catching prays also heading towards extinction as well. For what? So that you can eat out of season fruits and vegetables all year around that are sprayed so they won’t rot, consume livestocks that emit so much CO2, drive SUV to impress people and feel big about yourself? While polluting this earth left and right. Yeah. And don’t even get me started on the ocean pollution of all the plastics that are killing the marine species. Humans are destructive. We are rotten.

They are apparently pretty miserable, including having bad headaches (some believe this is why they push their tusks into the ground - trying to ease the pain). As others have said, this guide was disgustingly disrespectful to the elephant and the people on the tour. I'm glad no one got hurt, especially the elephant.

    That was really scary, I don’t blame those folks for wanting to get as far away as possible from that bull in musth. I read about ellie musth after this and it’s a helluva thing. There seems to be two schools of thought as to why they press the base of their trucks on the ground like this one did. Some say it’s an aggressive act, mimicking spearing another bull or it’s because of the pain from the swelling of the gland between their eye and ear. A bull with 60x normal testosterone level and in pain is not an animal you want to be around, that’s for sure.
