When a mother elephant decides to take a drink from a river, she is
unaware that there is danger lurking right below the surface. A huge 10
ft crocodile decides to latch its jaws onto the unsuspecting elephant's
trunk. The young elephants watch helplessly as the crocodile attacks and
the mother fights back.
This event calls to mind a short story
by the author of "The Junglebook" Rudyard Kipling titled "The Elephant's
Child: How the Elephant Got His Trunk". In this story, a young elephant
gets tricked by a crocodile into going too close to the water. The
crocodile bites the elephant's trunk and what was once a small trunk
gets stretched to its modern day length.
