An elephant will most likely use its trunk to spray mud all over the body usually covering the back of the ears first as this is where the heat loss is most efficient. Sometimes that process takes to long or they just feel it is more enjoyable and fun to just get down in the mud rolling and kicking as they lie down, the younger elephants tend to do this more than the adults. #elephants #redelephants #tsavoelephants #davidsheldrickwildlifetrust #saveelephants (at Tsavo National Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_hYTD_A1UI/?igshid=ydfexp9ia56z

The title “Red Elephants” of Tsavo doesn’t mean that the elephants were born that way… NO! The name is more of a nickname. Tsavo East National Park soil is somewhat red and when the elephants wallow in the mud they look that shade of red. #redelephants #redelephantsoftsavo #onlyinkenya🇰🇪🇰🇪 #itssokenya #protectelephants #elephantlovers4life #elephantphoto #elephantphotographer #savetheelephants🐘 #ivorybelongstoelephants #ivoryforelephant #ivoryisnotmedicine #wildlifephotographer #wildlife #tsavowestnationalparkkenya (at Tsavo West National Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx_zPSuA7_a/?igshid=nvbkq54ygpsp

Tsavo East National Park offers the unusual sight of seemingly 'red elephants ' which owe their color to the red soil, which they roll in as dirt bath to keep cool & deter parasites. #redelephants #redelephantsoftsavo #goredelephants #loveelephants #elephantdirtbath #elephant #elephants #elephantlover #iloveelephants #savetheelephants #ivorybelongstoelephants #ivoryisnotmedicine #ivoryforelephant #stoppoachingourelephants #ihatepoacherssomuch #conserveourwildlife #elephantphotos #elephantphotography #elephantjournal #conservationistphotography #conservationistlife #conservationists #tsavoeastnationalpark #onlyinkenya🇰🇪🇰🇪 (at Tsavo East National Park, Kenya) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxtxxlggqH3/?igshid=1dly9176nuoo1

The RED ELEPHANTS of Tsavo National Park in Kenya are the ONLY red elephants in the world. Actually, they are really the same colour as every other elephant in the world, but they just appear red due to constantly dust-bathing with the Park’s fine red volcanic soil. #redelephants #redelephantsoftsavo #tsavonationalpark #protectelephants #stoppoaching #stoppoachingourelephants #natureloversgallery #wildlifeofkenya #kenya🇰🇪 #touristattraction #naturephotograph #wildlifephotographs (at Tsavo East National Park, Kenya) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs7c6NJhGKz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ukoip4vekd74
