I was watching a documentary last night (actually a collection of David Attenborough's "best clips") and there was an incredible feature about a herd of elephants who go into special caves at night to lick salt.

My Dad reversed faster than I thought possible with the bull trotting down the road towards us. I think it was only a warning but.... My mother complained bitterly at my Dad as she said she did not get a photo as he reversed too quickly!!! LOL DianeDianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782670749466305626noreply@blogger.com
