Angry elephant shows leopard who's boss with loud screams
The video shows an elephant bull getting angry after it spotted a leopard, quickly letting the dangerous big cat know who is in charge with his loud screaming sounds.
Elephants are the world’s largest mammals walking this earth, and they know that. Besides for humans, there are very few predators that can kill or harm a healthy adult elephant in the wild. Due to their size, elephants mainly dominate the African savanna landscape in all aspects. From the watering holes to the feeding grounds, elephants make it clear that they are large and in charge. There are instances where predators such as lions and hyenas will attempt to hunt baby elephants, injured individuals, and older sickly animals with mixed results. Elephants usually move and live in herds, adding to the protection of these individuals. It is very difficult for predators to hunt an elephant amongst a whole herd that can become very angry and dangerous. Elephants in general do not tolerate the presence of any predator, whether it will ever be able to cause any damage or not. The video shows a classic example of this zero-tolerance behaviour. While watching a herd of elephants drinking at a watering hole, I noticed to the one side a lone leopard slowly appearing from the long grass. It looked like the leopard wanted to make its way to the water to quench its thirst. Immediately I knew that if the elephants do spot the leopard, they were not going to be happy with its presence. Leopards are smaller than lions and they are not known to hunt elephants at all due to the size differences. None the less, they are still predators and elephants do not like any predator, no matter what. The leopard didn’t seem to worry about being spotted. It was clearly thirsty and slowly made its way into the open towards the water. It didn’t take long for one elephant bull to spot the leopard. The elephant bull’s behaviour quickly changed into high alert while making a deep scary sound to alarm the rest of the herd. The elephant and leopard stood there staring at each other for a short moment. Suddenly the elephant charged towards the leopard while letting out a loud screaming sound. The leopard had no choice but to retreat and leave the water drinking for later. The leopard turned around and slowly moved off with the elephant coming closer again, making deep rumbling sounds, just to make sure the leopard understands who is in charge. The leopard slowly disappeared back into the thickets with the elephant staring after it before relaxing again. This is a great example of no matter how dangerous you are, size does matter a lot out in the African wild.
