A bull elephant in South Africa’s MalaMala Game Reserve used its powerful trunk recently to compress and spray water as a fine mist directed toward safari guests.
“This bull tricks us with a water show!” Ranger Gabriel Harmer exclaimed via Instagram. “It was absolutely amazing! A light mist spray on a warm afternoon drive. What better way to cool down than to get water sprayed on you by an Ellie!”
Harmer’s footage is posted below and best viewed with audio.
MalaMala Game Reserve also shared the footage under the title, “Mistifier.”
“Just shows you how strong their trunks are,” one viewer observed.
“He’s got skills,” another viewer chimed in.
MalaMala is a private reserve inside Sabi Sands Game Reserve and shares an unfenced border with Kruger National Park.
