This tusker made a mock charge while crossing the road at Mule Hole.He was part of a big family which included some young ones as well.After the mock charge he entered the jungle in double speed...

Nice action photo.The elephant is running.It has a true knee(not hock) like human knee that only bends back,nicely documented.Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild.

Nice behavior captured. The mid air position of the hind leg looks nice. Do check the AF point, I think it is locked a bit ahead of the elephant on the trees in the left. Thanks for sharing.

Nice running pose captured. How much of a crop is this? Do you have more space on top? Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Ive seen this often, a Young tusker who seemed to be waiting for an excuse to charge..... and usually he will retreat as quickly.May be some sort of a showoff behaviour as you see in teens :)
