Arch -Don't look

[ufkacbln]

This got lots of "Aaaaaaah poor little thing" comments in the staff room today:

This tiny elephant breathed a sigh of relief after his life was very nearly TRUNK-ATED.

The unlucky toddler got the shock of his life as he tried to take a sip from this watering hole.

A camouflaged croc lurched out of the swamp and clamped its massive jaws round his trunk.

Fellow African Bush elephants raced to the rescue of the stricken youngster while the pair fought a goliath tug of war.

The herd stamped their feet and roared, scaring the croc off as amateur photographer Johan Opperman captured the amazing scene in the Kruger National Park, South Africa.

Isn't that how elephants got their long trunks in the first place, according to Kipling?

Baby Elephant: "Ow! Leb go ob by dose!"

That's an experience poor little Ellie will never forget.

I had the same 'problem' when I went skinny dipping in Australia once!

Glad it got away; I HATE crocodiles!
