Unusual honeymoon experiences
- rare elephant birth on camera
The
extraordinary moment an elephant gave birth in the wild was captured on camera
by a couple on their honeymoon. The thrilling amateur footage was recorded by
newlyweds Debbie and Jon Smith at Ulusaba private game reserve in the Kruger
national park in South
Africa . Elephants are secretive about giving
birth in the wild and witnessing such an extraordinary event is rare even for
conservationists. But just a few feet away from a herd of elephants in their
Land Rover, Debbie and Jon managed to capture the "amazing
experience" through night vision goggles.
On the video,
one of the females in the herd can be seen acting strangely while the others
gathered around her for protection. Moving her legs, a calf could be seen
protruding before gently falling to the floor. The bewildered calf is coerced
to stand up almost immediately - which is essential for the animal's survival -
before the herd moved off into the bush.
