Elephant's Lake Kariba Lunchtime - A Masterclass in Fine Dining and Hygiene!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot, we witness the incredible intelligence and resourcefulness of an African Elephant at Lake Kariba. With its majestic presence, the elephant gracefully pulls up lush green grass along the shore. But wait, there's more to this feast than meets the eye! With a flick of its mighty trunk, our herbivorous connoisseur expertly swishes each plant through the shimmering water. Why? To ensure a clean and mud-free meal! This ingenious technique showcases not only the elephant's learning abilities but also its impeccable table manners. Lake Kariba serves as both backdrop and accomplice to this remarkable display of nature's brilliance. Located within Matusadona National Park in Zimbabwe, it provides a picturesque setting for these gentle giants to indulge in their culinary delights. Photographers Tom & Pat Leeson have perfectly captured this rare moment where wildlife meets gastronomy. Their lens immortalizes not just an animal but also highlights Africa's rich biodiversity.
