REPORTING DATE.13.01.2012
Nearly everywhere in the northern Serengeti nowadays, herds of elephants have taken over the fields after the departure of the wildebeests back to the south. On this day, ranger Deus and his guests came upon a big herd feeding on some lush green grass. In the middle of the herd was a big tusker which took concern of the vehicle as she was the matriarch.
