We turned off onto the S142 Shongololo loop. About 4km down this road we found MR ELEPHANT standing in the middle of the road.

The moment he heard our car he turned around and looked at us as if he wanted to say: This is my road

We stopped and gave him his space

He then moved off to our left and I told Mrs Alf that I'm going to try and sneak past him so everyone needs to hold on.............
As I was moving forward slowly he then gave us the LOOK


We could see this elephant means business.

And the next moment he just came straight towards us


After a few meters he stopped....... And gave us another look.

Mrs Alf just took photos as he was charging and I tried to get past still very slowly not realizing he is coming fast towards us



And he got closer and closer



I slammed the petrol down as hard as I could when Mrs. Alf screamed he is charging and with the noise of the wheels on the gravel road I think it frightened him and he stopped.
Crazy elephant I thought


So we were laughing and said: now he will wait for the next car to arrive.
