Warning signs

In an escalation of his temper tantrum, an African elephant (Loxodonta africana) in musth flaps his ears, stomps his feet and blows a huge cloud of dust and dirt, Mabula, South Africa. At the large size you can see the pieces of dirt flying in the air.

    That looks like a temper tantrum. I think I would stay away.

    That's quite a cloud of dust! To get that effect, it looks like one big blow through the trunk--that's a lot of dust to blow all at once!
