Another baby jumbo....how vulnerable..to hell with those humans who dare to harm these gentle giants.
Caravan ready with saddle and mahout....
Breastfeeding the baby before going to work.....
The young tusker kneels down for the rider to mount him...
Off they go with the entourage...for spotting rhinos...
We mounted the jumbos, who too us through the grassy meadow, for a closer view of the rhinoceros, wild buffalos and pigs...
I feel the park should receive more funds and draw more visitors...it will be good for the species inhabiting it and great for the mind and soul of the visitors..
