Nice pose and lovely environmental composition. The massive bull is old now. Generally the colour of ears changes even in wild elephants with advanced age, but this is an exceptional case. Thanks for sharing. SaktiWild

Lovely Corbett landscape. Agree with Saktida, quite rare to see that the colour of ears has changed. A slight off centered composition would have strengthened the image further. Thanks for sharing.

P.S :- Some small dust spots can be seen on the top part and on the right.

Surprised to see this in a wild elephant. Wondering if it may have TB. I hope I am wrong. However, as Sakti da has mentioned, in very old elephants change is colouration is also observed. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
