A visit to a water hole and an obviously hungry Nile crocodile ....

...resulted in an unusual struggle for the elephant mum to get rid of the croc hanging onto her trunk....

Maybe just turning around with full power...?

Help comes from the little elephant calf, just stumbling once over the croc, made it release mom's trunk..If mishap or a clever move was not reported, however I liked that turn of the story....(Full story here)
