These amazing images were captured in Zambia next to the Luangwa River by Martin Nyfeler. Watch as an elephant mum finds herself in a wild tug of war with a crocodile after it gets hold of her trunk. Scared and unable to help, her baby hides behind its mother as the crocodile attacked. See how this story ends below:
According to the photographer, the elephant dragged the crocodile all the way out of the water as she backed away. Despite the croc that was latched onto the elephant, she and her baby broke into a run. She finally managed to shake the croc off of her trunk. The baby momentarily tripped over the predator before the pair made it off safely. Both the mother and baby elephant were seen feeding from the river later in the day.
A similar attack was captured on camera in the Chobe River, Botswana:
