Arm Wrestling --Elephants of Kabini

Wow big tusks of the young elephant on the left. Nice that you sighted them jostling in the water. How long was this sighting? You could have tried using a further higher ISO to get more shutter speed. Thanks for sharing.

Nice one. A bit more contrast would be good. You got them sideways, so that we can see both the protagonists. They will learn from these jostling matches and also remember the strength of their opponents for future combats. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,

Nice you cud see this...the one with the tusks seems to have pushed the other quite along way into the water.

Very educative image. This photograph may be seen in conjunction with your posting titled 'Water Sports 2' on 24 06 2015. It will help us to imagine how a Makhna could give no less equal fight and even uproot one of the tusks, if need be. The practice sessions are on. Thanks for sharing. SaktiWild
