Description
Elephant are very social, long-lived animals. Big and powerful too. To keep the peace between these giants, they need to sort out, determine and accept dominance between individuals. So it's not unusual to see adult bulls square off to test their strength. But big as they are, it's not the violent face to face combat you might expect. In fact, as their trunks wave, intertwine and touch each other, it's rather like a fluid waltz of arms wrestling, where the only sounds are the wind and the occasional "clack" of tusks tapping.
