The African Savanna Elephant (Loxodonta africana) is the largest living land animal. Males (called bulls) weigh up to six tonnes and stand up to four metres tall at the shoulder; females (called cows) are smaller, weighing up to 3.5 tonnes and 3.4 metres at the shoulder. Bull Elephants are often seen together, particularly around water and mud wallows. In this sequence of clips shot in the Shingwedzi River in Kruger National Park, the older bull stood in the flowing water, sucking up water with his trunk, drinking some of it and occasionally spraying the rest around. When some Blacksmith Lapwings approached he deliberately sprayed water at them, scaring them and some nearby Egyptian Geese away.
