They have such dry skin, they must get very itchy. Such a human like image. I use any available door frame!

Very lovely! It’s almost as though the tree & elephant belong to each other.
great pic. ) oh what great scharing for the wild aminals in the wilded.
What a delightful image. If you look carefully, with a vivid imagination, the tree almost has an otherworldly face. A scratch or a hug–all comforting.
