World Elephant Day
Bornean Pygmy Elephant (Elephas maximus borneensis) - Danum Valley, Malaysia
Looks like today is world elephant day so in honor of that here is one of my few shots of an elephant. I was lucky to see my fair share of elephants during my time in Borneo but I didn't get many photographs. On this occasion there was an group of elephants 3-4 right off the side of the road, we could hear them but couldn't see them. I crouched down and waited and before too long, this little calf trotted out, I say little but he was already quite large. He stayed on the road for maybe 10-15 seconds but I was able to get a few shots at him. Despite being Bornean pygmy elephants they were still quite large and impressive animals, and always a pleasure to be around.
