An African bush elephant in Chobe National Park, Botswana

Here's a guest post from !animals@lemmy.world, encouraged by @jeena@piefed.jeena.net.

I've had to speculate on this shot (as seen in the title), as information was limited. There are also versions of this pic in 'setting sun' colors, so this may indeed be color-shifted a bit. In any case, I find the new color scheme quite lovely!

Btw, the African bush elephant is the largest land animal in the world, with adults weighing in at ~7 short tons.

De rien, mssr!

Btw, may I ask how you first got interested in elephants?

Me, I've always been impressed by their intelligence, social lifestyle, and individual character. As an avid fan of Euro comics, I've also enjoyed how relatively often they appear in various stories, starting right with the legendary Tintin.

Very outrun vibe.
