Few animals have a more recognizable silhouette on the African savanna than the elephant. As they forage, elephants use their trunks to pull up grasses, strip leaves from branches, and even dig for roots. An adult can consume more than 300 pounds of vegetation in a day, and their feeding habits help shape the landscape by opening up dense vegetation and creating space for other species. Nikon Z8 with Nikkor 180-600mm lens (at 450mm) ISO 200, f/6 at 1/250th of a second.

I wonder if the elephant notices the beauty that surrounds him..
