Description
This old bull shows off his character lines and leaking musth glands to the females in his herd walking down a dry river bed.
Annually the musth glands secrete a dark, oily, musky substance and become inflamed. This physiological change is associated with a behavior observed in male elephants called musth, and is characterized by unpredictable, dominant, and excitable behavior.
