Scotty, this 11 month old, male, African elephant plodded past a rock before suddenly charging playfully at me. At least, I'm almost positive it was a playful kind of lope. I'm mostly sure that an 11 month old elephant couldn't immediately harbor any kind of loathing toward me... could it? Despite his intolerance of my blatant violation of an unknown Pachyderm/Human covenant, this resident of the Louisville Zoo in Kentucky was clearly enjoying himself in the sun and cool breeze on February 9, 2008. For a fellow his age though, I'm glad there was a fence between us because he had a Moriarty-esque gleam in his eyes. I soon moved on to see if the monkeys had started throwing poo at the teenagers yet. (Sony DSLR-A100, f/5.6, 1/200, ISO 100)
