    Nice image. Three trunks having different wrinklings show the difference in age. The baby is cute and lovely, needs full cover in a tigerland.
    Thanks for sharing. SaktiWild

    The baby is looking for reassurance. When they are nervous, they touch their trunks. Even small elephant calves are attacked by tigers. On one occasion in corbett, a tiger was circling a herd of elephants and roaring to stress and panic the herd and get the calf away from safety. There was lot of trumpeting and the elephants were kicking dust and bushes. In that event, the tiger couldn't succeed.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Cheers,

    I liked this frame. The expressions of the calf are so nice. Good details on the trunk and the wrinkles can be seen clearly, as Saktida has pointed out the difference in the age can be observed from that. Lovely capture. Thanks for sharing.
