Big Tusker Elephant Shows Off His HUGE Size To Sarafi-Goers In South Africa
A group of safari-goers have a rare run-in with a "big tusker" elephant on a drive in Mopani, South Africa, on November 15.
"Big tusker Ezulwini is known for his love of vehicles. This close encounter is filmed from inside the vehicle by driver Brass Brassett as the elephant makes a turn to say 'Hi' and, in doing so, scrapes his magnificent tusks along the vehicle," the safari guide told Newsflare.

Oh God protect him from poachers
He only has prayers. I think he comes to the cars to ask help. He is big but looks old too. Need s attention, possibly some informal protection too.
Ikr get this elephant some body guards lmao
@@laurelsilberman5705 Why? China needs large tusks, and pay good for them.
@@vidarberg2050 you know, your bad joke is still bad the second time around. Why did you delete your other comment? Embarrassed no one found it funny because it isn’t?
'PLEASE' !!!!!
What a majestic creature. Absolutely beautiful. I hope he stays safe.
He looks old, God please keep him healthy.
Looks like an old sage who knows how the world works.
In Hinduism lord Ganesha 🙏
yeah and kill all the poachers
really old. never saw an elephant whose trunk was so long it trudges along on the floor all the time. is he so old that he shrunk already or do trunks grow until old age like ears on humans?
looks like a normal healthy ginormous beast to me. doesn't look unhealthy at all
Thank you so much! This bull is so beautiful! I thought that the huge tuskers had all been wiped out decades ago by trophy hunters and poachers. I hope that he lives a long, full life.
They are rare, most of them are found in Kenya, though poaching sometimes occurs, the country has had a total ban of any wildlife hunting for almost five decades.
@@omahabred9466 South Africa has a good amount of large tusker Bull Elephants as well……
What an absolute honour to be in his presence
What a magnificent animal - pleased to see he's lived a long life. Well done to the security forces protecting these animals.
Wow. Not many of these big smashers about. Bloody shame.. Here's to conservation and their security. Awesome. 😎 Thank you.
" big smashers " I like that...:-))
"big smashers" this dude is clearly british looool
Africans are really very lucky, because such beautiful and magnificent elephants are found in their land. Greetings from India. 🇮🇳
So are you guys too. You have elephants too.
There are elephants in india as well right? They are not as big as the african elephant, but they are almost as big
Starving Africans are lucky because they have elephants 1000 miles away?
He is gorgeous! I hope he will get to live a long heathy, happy life away from poachers.
someone should saw off his ivory tusks... reduce the chance off poachers killing him...
@@garyschultz7768 Yes exactly what I was thinking. 🤔
@@garyschultz7768 That isn't easy to do since the tusks are a part of the skull.
He already looks old.
Looking at his super wrinkled trunk and face. The condition of his tusk as they are really rough. He must be a old bull.
Probably around 50.
How can you tell its age ?
jayachandra. by his size and large tusks and his ambling walk
Such a beautiful animal. It breaks my heart that people kill these animals for their tusks.
Have you been in a local villages in africa these animals are vicious violent n dangerous
@@justin4k615 the animal needs a place to live . As nature intended it . How many of these villages are right up against reserves and how many villiager are grazing thier cattle inside reserves ? If your gonna make biased statements put some truth to it ! Theres no place left for these animals to be . And people are most likely the cause of the elephants bad behavior if there is such bad behavior !
@@leonrhodes8700 I love u😁 u spoke true facts
@@leonrhodes8700 well said mate
@@justin4k615 Just like the cowards whales became aggressive when hunted to near extinction. So were much of Africa's wild life. They learned to be aggressive. They go into villages because they are hurting from losing so many baby elephants to snares these past years. I would be on a rampage too if my babies were taken and forced to suffer. There has to be a better solution than doing the same thing over and over. Like insanity.
Elephants are just the best! So beautiful! They are incredibly intelligent and emotional in addition to being absolute bull dozers!!!!! They are remarkable and I feel like a kid again when I see videos like this!!!
Wow the car puts his size into perspective, amazing Ellie. Thanks for sharing.
I especially enjoyed to see how careful he was not to damage the vehicle. Seems like he is fully aware of his size and reach.
What a handsome boy! I hope he will always be safe to live out his life peacefully.
wow!! if this is how massive he looks in a video, i can't even imagine how gigantic he must look in real life...
Please protect him!!! He is massive we need to save this huge tusker!!
He’s absolutely magnificent and beautiful! A king 👑🐘❤️ I hope he has a long life! 😘❤️🙏❤️❤️❤️
To me, whenever there’s a tusker elephant like that, that means they are the lords of the elephants 🐘 I am so amazed
Thats one BIG ELEPHANT. glad he still has his tusks. They were super long. Must be an old fella. Imagine being his mate & walking thru the Bush with him by ur side. Thx 4 sharing
Like a muscle man...he shows off and poses all his best sides! :)
Waah. Africi haathi dekhne mein kafi sundar aur tejasvi hotein hein. 😍
they are so smart the first one knew exactly what was going on just standing there observing he even struck a pose sticking his front leg out. gorgeous animal.
May these majestic beasts never ever become extinct.
Absolutely wonderful.
what a gorgeous animal
...at 0:10 when approached by an elephant, hurry and give him a MANGO 😀
These elephants must be awarded for serving the nation by promoting tourism
Without the tourism, unfortunately, the locals would kill most of the elephants.
@@tom7471No. Without these animals (wild life), tourism will not be there in africa.
AWESOME! The first one, when the elephant started walking away i think he was thinking, "you people are boring. I'm gonna find something else to do". Lol
What a beautiful sight. He's such a beautiful creature!
An interesting detail about tuskers like Ezulwini here, is that you have less to worry about with them being aggressive than a younger male, or any elephant with broken tusks. Tusker's tusks only get that large when they're more peaceful, and don't engage in fights. This big boy clearly is very curious and unlikely to harm anyone as long as they obey the safety rules, and let him roam in peace.
An old man, but an oh so beautiful old man.
Magnificent and Majestic. Thank you God.
Utterly awe-inspiring. What a handsome, majestic bull elephant!
Indeed, first one looked to be at least 50. They need to be protected.
Imagine carrying those around all day every day. Magnificent Ellie!
Up close ,and personal,from a 🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘gentle giant elephant is so huge and big .

Please keep this majestic animal safe from poachers
Scary much. What a privilege to encounter this big beastie
Bless these beautiful elephants.
Whoever filmed this is very brave. I would have a heart attack.
Poachers stay away from this beautiful animal.
In Jesus name⁉️
So Beautiful and majestic must be a fantastic experience
That elephant was like. Approach, introduce. Pose for pictures. Turn and walk away.
Elephant: You wanna picture? THERE! You got one now go. Silly human.
Damn wonder how old that great beast is.🤔
Other commenters have said he must be around 50. 😊
@@longwhitemane Meaning That He Has 20 More Years
id say 55-70 because on HERDS PAGE they have a 45 yr old over there .....n hes not wrinkled at all. this old guy must be at leasttttttt 57,60,65+++++++. n hes so docile. sign of age but he moves very well. so at the very least 60,65....topping at 75, 80. ellies can live hella long
Save these elephants no matter what..
I think he just popped in hoping they might have a little treat for him 😁but what a wonderful specimen
Damn, that's a big boah.
Almost like he was scretching the paint on your car on purpose. Trolling you a bit.
PROTECT HIM AT ANY AND ALL COSTS!!!! BEAUTIFUL AND MAJESTIC!!!
Such a beauty, please keep him safe.
Man, I just love it at 1:50 he picks up his head and just motors on out !
Good thing he wasn't in musth!
He's like "Oooh a CAR! I'm'a go touch it!"
I read an article about these big tuskers and the writer said he was told that these rare elephants know they are in danger around humans, especially the ones with big tusk. He was told that these elephants have been observed to actually hide their tusk from humans when they feel danger.
How terrifying truth is a small cute baby elephant grown to a massive bull.
The visibility of the creation is singularly amazing. All glory to our creator.
Wow. That animal is huge. But to think a Blue Whale weighs as much as 25 of those is astonishing!
HE IS AWESOME, PROTECT HIM LORD,
Hes magnificient
He is the one who can easily defeat the gang of lion, bcoz he is a monster while the lions are gangster
PAPS GOD, thankyou for creating such a majestic creature.
Nice to know there's a massive tank in the bush behind it ready to blow poachers to pieces.
Gorgeous ❤
His Majesty & his friendly Hi!
Imagine an elephant just comes up to you, keys your car and leaves...
The real king of the grasslands.
Magnificent
Your majesty!!
Hes so grown and huge you can see the textures on his skin so detailed
........And for the bravest, the Oscar goes to the driver in the open-top jeep. I would never have imagined myself sitting so comfortably in driver's seat, with a monster-size bull elephant being just a meter away from you in an open-top vehicle. Either I would have wetted my underpants or have had a massive heart attack. No other alternative.....
What beautiful tusks - must be over 100lbs in each one!! I hope he has passed his genes on!! 👍
Wow - very impressive. seems docile enough, but could easily turn that vehicle into a scrap pile if he wanted to.
Magnificent!
Surround him with armed rangers at all times!
HE IS HUMONGOUS!
