African ELEPHANT - single, in musth
Namibia, Africa
Loxodonta africana
Musth is when the temporal glands between the eye and ear swells up and an oily liquid ozes out of the opening. It indicates breeding readiness, and is when male Elephants are at their most aggressive & dangerous

EDITORS COMMENTS
AW-6429: The Ultimate 'Tusk' Force!". In this snapshot, we witness the awe-inspiring power and grace of an African Elephant in musth. Etosha National Park, Namibia serves as the majestic backdrop for this rare encounter with one of nature's most magnificent creatures. With its colossal size and unmistakable presence, this single male elephant stands tall as a symbol of strength and resilience. Endangered yet determined to thrive, he represents the precious wildlife that calls Africa home. As our eyes are drawn to his mighty tusks, we can't help but marvel at their sheer grandeur. These ivory weapons serve not only as a means of defense but also as a testament to his status among other bulls in the herd. Notice how effortlessly he maneuvers through the wilderness with his agile trunk – a versatile tool capable of both delicate feeding and powerful trumpeting. It is through these remarkable adaptations that elephants have earned their reputation as gentle giants. Caught mid-feast on succulent vegetation, our bull relishes every bite with an air of contentment. His unwavering determination to sustain himself echoes the resilience needed for survival in Africa's challenging landscapes. Adrian Warren's exceptional photography allows us to glimpse into this mesmerizing world where elephants reign supreme. Let this stunning print remind us all of the beauty found within Earth's diverse tapestry and inspire us to protect these incredible creatures for generations to come.
