, 1/1000 f/10.0, ISO 320, hand held. Amboseli National Park, Kenya. Specie: Loxodonta africana

Tim è uno degli ultimi grandi tusker rimasti in Kenya. È questo il termine usato per descrivere gli elefanti africani, solitamente maschi, con zanne tanto lunghe da raggiungere il suolo. Le magnifiche zanne sono una calamita per i bracconieri e questi grandi maschi sono costantemente a rischio. Tim è il più vecchio elefante di Amboseli. Ha 49 anni e le sue zanne pesano quasi 45 kg. La zanna sinistra è più piccola della destra perché è la dominante usata più spesso. Nel corso del mio ultimo viaggio ho avuto la fortuna di vedere questo gigante gentile molto da vicino e mi sono così interessato alla sua storia. Tim è stato seriamente ferito sulla groppa da una lancia nel 2014 e curato per l'infezione sopravvenuta da un gruppo di veterinari. Gli elefanti di Amboseli talvolta fanno irruzione nelle coltivazioni al di fuori del parco, distruggendo i raccolti. Per un raid di elefanti gli agricoltori possono perdere tutto il loro sostentamento in una sola notte. Così per rappresaglia gli elefanti vengono spesso feriti ed uccisi. Nel 2016 Tim è stato nuovamente trafitto da una lancia e colpito con una grande pietra sulla fronte, riportando una ferita molto grave. Tim è allora entrato nel parco andando direttamente al campo dei conservazionisti dove sapeva che di poter trovare aiuto! Oggi sta bene. Il Kenya Wildlife Service gli ha messo un radio collare e la sua posizione è seguita costantemente da una squadra di ranger che può intervenire per allontanare l'elefante se si avvicina alle aree agricole.

The written testimony is magnificent. As for the photo, overall nice, in my opinion is a thread penalized by the cutting of the head and ears. However, it remains an engaging document. Compliments

Thank you all! Hi Mario.
The narrow composition is desired and in my opinion preferable because the cut has thus eliminated the radiocollare that emerges from the rump and the white of the sky and focused attention on the fangs and dust. I also tried other compositional solutions but this seemed to me the best.

Beautiful photo and great atmosphere, I agree with the cut too tight that perhaps penalizes the image, but you do not have a counter-check and then I make the author's answer enough :-) Greetings and congratulations again
