Mock charges vs Real charge
      #241867 - 06/02/14 10:37 PM




Check out this video - are there any differences between the mock charges and the real charge?

I have badly lived both. In my opinion, differences are minute and in this video, no differences, both cows have the same demenaor. The old lady is the wisest, the aggressive one could be the next leader of the pack, should she survive? This animal can give a bad name to the Kruger so avid of visitors.
Do they cull quick-tempered critters?

I agree with Daryl. You could easily pick the real charge when it hit the car.

That is what I thought too, no detectable differences between the mock charges and the one carried through. Other than the first two eles stopping. Guess the only answer is the distance they got to.

What's comfortable for you? I'd kinda prefer not to have 5 to 8 tons of screaming, running-straight-at-me-elephant, as if to stomp me into last week. Is this a personal failing of mine, or perhaps I'm misrepresenting a poorly understood observation due to lack of personal experience?

When she came past the two that stopped, she dropped her head in a determined manner that appeared to me at that time, she meant to carry out the assault!
