An adult African elephant stands facing right amidst dense green scrub and brush, situated on reddish-brown earth. The elephant, observed from its left side, has its trunk raised and appears to be feeding, with a light-colored piece of vegetation visible at its mouth/trunk tip. Its large, wrinkled grey hide is partially concealed by the surrounding foliage, which extends across the midground. The foreground consists of sparse dry vegetation and exposed reddish-brown soil. The background shows more dense green trees under an overcast grey sky. This scene is located within the Sundays River Valley Local Municipality, South Africa.
