We saw elephants on our way back from Kerala in Masinagudi!
The mom and aunt(I think they were the mom and aunt) were being so protective of the calf and always flanked it on either side.
It was wonderful watching them twirl grass around their trunks like spaghetti and fork it up into their mouths.
I think they had just been to a waterhole, because their limbs looked like biscuits partly dipped in tea.
