Elephants love water, and need to drink every day, so any waterhole in a relatively dry area, is like a magnet for animals, and always a place I head to when looking for animals in a wilderness area. We waited for animals to come and drink at the waterhole, and soon enough the elephant arrived and enjoyed a long drink, but then he started to roll around and play in the mud. This elephant revelled in his mud bath and while we got a bit splattered with mud, it made for great pics.
