The interesting scene in the animal world was spotted and recorded by American photographer Kevin Dooley, 60, at the Madikwe Nature Reserve in South Africa.
A series of photos by the photographer shows a flower female equivalent lying still, hiding on a high tree trunk while the opponent is an elephant standing at the base of the tree, trying to lift it with a long nose.
Witnessing from start to finish, Mr. Kevin said: ''The male elephant discovered the female elephant more than 1km away. It approached the tree and tried to push the bao down but the opponent still tried to hold on''.
The incident occurred for about 1 and a half hours. According to the photographer, normally seeing a flower femalerapper in nature is quite rare, so witnessing an interaction between a femalerapper and an elephant can be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Elephants often make noise to chase preyers away, but chasing them to the point that the enemy has to run to the trees, as in the above case does not always happen.
When the flock wanders the steppe, they communicate with each other through small noises - including warnings to the group members about potential dangers.
Individual game animals such as leopards and lions have little chance to fight elephants, even the smallest adult elephants, because elephants have the mentality of protecting the flock.
