Don't look into his eyes! They can smell fear. Don't look at him. Just ignore and pretend that he isn't here... Thank Heavens I have two sets of glasses clean underwear

OK, this dude is passed out or completely fearless!

Holy Crap.

Incredible stuff.
 
Guessing there were NO sudden moves in that camp....
 
WOW! I don't think I'd have been that relaxed, never know what may make that ele agitated.
 
What a fine looking beast though! Outstanding!
 
Stunning. Except for PAC problems in the late Rhodesia, it's inter-actions like this, over the years, that have left me, personally, unable to bring myself to hunt these gentle giants.
 
WOW!!! One can only stare in amazement..........and then change your shorts :biggrin:
 
OOPS! Correct me if I'm wrong, observe, but these are 2 different elephants, right? Picture 1,4 and 5 is one, and picture 2 and 3 another. Correct?
 
I gotta put some clothes in the washing machine right now. I'll be right back!

I think 2 & 3 are different animals as well.
2 Has quite a twist in one tusk compared to 3.
 
MATE thats so cool... like everyone there the hairs on ya arms, legs the hairs on ya bloody chest would be standing on end.
oyeah the pucker factor is through the roof on this one lads
when we were in africa we met a woman who had been in kenya and she showed us photos of a big bull elephant that strolled into her motel and drank from the pool

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
