We were soon in a vast wooded grassland driving blind. And then suddenly there were three large herds of elephants spread out in the wooded glade. There were easily close to or over 50 elephants. Some really large females were in these herds. One herd seeing the vehicles bunched together to stare and then retreated a short distance and fed. Soon a massive bull strolled into view and started moving from one herd to another obviously checking for estrous females. He was massive and easily towered over the largest female by a meter and half.
A young immature bull took it upon himself to intimidate us with displacement behaviors that were quite amusing to watch. Gradually the herds and the bull faded into the woodlands and we decided to head back since dusk was setting fast and it would be difficult in the waning light to find our tire tracks back to the dirt road that we had left behind about a mile away.
