    Adults are some times harder to silent than children. The one's in this safari did really well when the guides told them to be quiet and still. Awesome!

    The beautifully surreal part was when the elephant passed by. It was like a tree had walked by. I also loved the relieved chuckle at the end.

      Yes, in many of these elephant encounters that you see here on RUclips, the lifting of the trunk as they get near seems to be a kind of "hello" or the equivalent of the Italian "Ciao"!

    What does the lifted trunk mean? Was the elephant sniffing for threats, greeting or what? I know a lifted trunk in elephant statues is good luck and a trunk over the horns denotes aggression. I seen one video where a group of men saved a baby elephant and when the group of elephants was getting ready to leave they all raised their trunks as in thanks. Can someone help me, please?

    • @WildlifeObsessed
      @WildlifeObsessed 6 лет назад +1

      Screaming Tima - Delighted to share my understandings.
      Lifting the trunk is a sign that he wants to get a better idea of what you are. Their eye sight is appalling. But they have incredible hearing and sense of smell.
      Almost certain, he had picked-up the vehicle's scent, mixed in with he was not sure what. Trunk hanging down is too oriented towards the earth. Lifted to your level and its targeted, focused and directed.
      Trunk up, ears out and lots of noise is good, if darned scary. It's all filibuster and threat.
      Ears out, head down, trunk curled under and a charge - not threatening any more. No joke. He is serious. This is real and outright attack is imminent.
      Go on a Safari - you'd love it.

    • @WildlifeObsessed
      @WildlifeObsessed 6 лет назад +3

      A herd with their trunks up is again, almost certainly, a sign of delight, excitement and that they are all talking to each other and friends in other herds, you may not even be aware of.
      Their voices are at such a low pitch that most human ears cannot pick them up. Such that you might not hear anything.
