Elephant dance

[Sabyasachi Patra]

This was photographed in Bandipur Tiger Reserve. f6.3, 1/160, full frame image. This is another image of the pregnant elephant displaying musth. The other one is shaking its leg.

Nice educative image. The 'dancing mode' examplifies that the elephant has no hock which other four-footed animals have. So it could not trot. The elephant has 'true' knee like human beings which only bend backwards. I am enjoying and abosorbing. Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild
