There is nothing that Elephants enjoy more than bathing other than eating.
Here one is seen making the most of recent rains in Savute, Chobe National Park, Botswana.

No wonder they are so wrinkled. Great action shot Ken. Amazing how big the splash zone is.

A great action shot, Ken! The splash and the water droplets flying everywhere are great and even it's tail is making a splash! Very nicely captured!
