    Elephants are magnificent creatures.

    1:32: Not the moment for an engine breakdown.

      The elephant is also impressive

    Sorry, Bob. Don't think he wants to be buddies

    I've read that the safest way to approach an elephant is to dart towards it erratically. That way he knows you're friendly.

      How erratic we talking bout?
      Run in a circle first?

      Ummm . . . No. Whilst even a male lion will react to that, a bull in musth is totally unpredictable. I've seen bulls display unrelenting aggression and still others familiar to us show an almost apologetic and demure demeanor. Bottom line - always have a good escape plan.

  • @Bluenose352

    A Bull in musth is, obviously, the last Elephant you want to see up close. Sometimes they'll mock charge. For the most part, they'll flip a Land Rover and keep smashing it until satisfied.

      "Come on, Matt, we're going to be buddies. Aren't we?" As you beat a hasty.. and wise..retreat. Live to film another day

    We’re gonna spend a lot of time with this elephant. Famous almost last words

    I'm thinking it's rude to film someone while they're dribbling.

  • @stnicholas54
    @stnicholas54 4 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    For such a big guy he moves fast. The elephant, that is.

  • @nsecchi1

    If Matt isn't careful he's going to be the mate.

    Bob & Matt, well that's sounds like a good match

  • @sirlordhenrymortimer6620

    This is a massive bull with fully preserved tusk , amazing and extremely rare sight .

  • @Samus1234567890
    @Samus1234567890 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The sound that bull makes at 1:42 is on par with a male lion's roar for "oh fuck" factor IMO.

  • @icewaterfall101

    Seems like love at first sight.

    First they showed the elephant taking a piss.....then they showed the cameraman crapping his pants.....

    That elephant was caught before, he was wearing a tracking device.

    Animals are probably convinced that cameras are weapons.

  • @tinkmarshino
    @tinkmarshino 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    damn he caught that one right off.. no foolin' him huh! (especially with the radio collar) Well I hope he cleans the truck out and takes a shower (after he dribbled so much) before he goes to the club to find a mate..

  • @Shungabali
    @Shungabali 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    It's too hot the bull is in musth and needs to rest in the shade before he continues his search for a mate but a human being is filming for Tv and don't care...out he goes to disturb this magnificent animal

  • @fredaalexander9557
    @fredaalexander9557 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    He's looking a mate. He doesn't not want to be bothered with a human being.

    Hey Bob, Matt doesn't know his name is Matt.

    Really hope that the jeep is automatic. If the gear is manual, i would probably freak out and kick the wrong pedal

  • @shashankrs2967
    @shashankrs2967 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    why u need to disturb as u r well aware that he is in must...! its bit akward to disturb him, trigger him & he will charge at u....its really disturbing them....its like making fun of a human who is upset or sad...!! think that way...!

  • @abseiduk

    Why such a big collar on his neck? Get that off.

      That is a tracking device, I know, I don't approve of them either.

    big BEAST.

  • @zakapholiac9377
    @zakapholiac9377 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Looked like a fake charge to me. Usually if they have their ears up then it’s intimidation.
    If they have their ears back however… it was nice knowing you.

  • @jamesbrennand3181

    Why can’t these idiots just stop bothering these animals he is hot , tired and in musk the elephant wants to be left alone

    Maybe the bull elephant has a musth
    (Its a agressive behavior for bull elephants)

  • @WildlifeObsessed
    @WildlifeObsessed 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Bob - Strange place to go "looking for a mate", as she put it. None too discrete of her either.
    Matt looks ready and up for it.
    Love the filming and awareness of Elephants though.

  • @slavetrader1489
    @slavetrader1489 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    mock charge. if it was real charge his ears would have been fully out. this was mock charge to tell u to gtfo.

    • @bla7091
      @bla7091 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I thought the other way around, that ears out + making itself look bigger means a mock charge. When the ears come in and it's all about the speed you're probably in trouble...
