I mention this specifically because for the second time in my life, elephants were involved. I was on a dirt road when I came upon a small family group of elephants in the bush just off the road. I drove slowly past then stopped. What great photo it would be, so I turned off the engine to avoid vibration, reached down to the floor and picked up my camera, and turned to take the photo, and there was the biggest bull elephant coming for me at full charge! This was no warning feint; he meant business. I dropped the camera, turned the ignition key, and I guess the Volkswagen was as scared as I was for it started immediately! As I took off, I glanced at my rearview mirror, and all I could see was a couple of the gnarled toenails as he attempted to slam his huge foot down on the back of the car! By the smallest unit of any measuring system, he just missed me!
