A few photos in sequence showing the dexterity of an African Elephant using its trunk while feeding on a Sicklebush.
Reaching in.
Branch selected.
Notice how delicately he handles it.
And in the mouth.
The branch is not eaten as such but rather gets rolled and crushed so as to get to the inner bark where all the goodness is. The spines on the branch pose no problem for them either.
Just a little insight into the wonderful world of wildlife.
I hope you found this interesting.
Brilliant...amazing creatures! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for that
