Elephants came to swim in the hotel pool in South Africa (video)
For guests, this day was unforgettable.
Guests of the hotel Mhondoro Lodge in the Limpopo province of South Africa will never forget the day that gave them a meeting with the elephant in the pool.
Mhondoro Lodge is situated in one of the points of the popular Safari route. To see wild animals is easy. But the tour guide Ivan Ueckermann, which followed the movement of herds of elephants, managed to take really unique shots.
One of the animals came right up to the pool, dipped her trunk into the water and took a few large SIPS. At this time next bathed the children.
“I knew it was a great opportunity to see elephants in their natural environment. To learn more about these amazing creatures and their behavior, how they react to each other. And who in the moment will dominate in the pool, holding the other in subjection”.
I just enjoy the sounds they make when you drink the water and communicate. Enjoyed looking at the texture of their skin, unbelievably long lashes…Ivan Ueckermann
“It was awesome,” he added.
During the dry season in Africa is drying up many rivers and streams. This forces the animals to seek other sources of water.
According to Uekermann, the water in the pool contains no chemicals and is completely safe for the elephants.
