Hello everyone. Thank you for your comments and suggestions to my previous post , as always , much appreciated.
This is Lal Kaan ( Lal=Red, Kaan=Ear ), i.e Red Ear from Corbett. We sighted him roaming near the ram ganga river on a late afternoon. Asiatic elephants are pretty shy when compared to its African cousins. The shyness is now in their nature because of excessive conflicts with humans due to ever decreasing forest cover. This particular individual was no different but with only single vehicle in the vicinity and proper respect offered, this guy was at ease and spent ample time around the area , drinking and bathing.
