Thirsty Elephants

This group of Elephants in the Kruger National park found a water tank and proceeded to drink from it. A large elephant requires 200 liters of water a day and consumes about 250 kilograms of vegetation. That is rather industrious and one observes that constantly grazing.

What an awesome elephant photo! Someday I'll get to see them "on safari" I hope!

Clever of them to drink from the tank like that.
