The Elephant Delinquents of Pilanesberg 🦏🐘
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 кві 2016
- We delve into the fascinating story of the elephants introduced to the Pilanesberg reserve in 1979. Most of these magnificent creatures were orphans of culling operations, which meant they lacked essential role models to teach them proper behaviour.
🐘💔 Without guidance, the young bulls started misbehaving, bullying females, and attempting to force them into mating. This resulted in worrying consequences, as the younger elephants became aggressive, attacking rhinos and even numerous tourist vehicles. Tragically, 40 rhinos lost their lives, and one human fatality occurred due to their aggressive behaviour.
💔😢 The root cause of this delinquent behaviour was the frustration arising from the rejection the young bulls faced from the females. The females recognized that the younger bulls were not yet fully mature, leading to their refusal to mate. In their heightened hormonal states, the young bulls reacted severely, leading to unfortunate rhino deaths and other aggressive acts.
But this story isn't all doom and gloom. Over time, efforts were made to address these issues, and the reserve's management implemented various strategies to help the elephants integrate and develop healthy behaviours.
Join us as we explore the intriguing lives of these magnificent creatures, their challenges, and the inspiring initiatives taken to restore harmony in the Pilanesberg reserve. 🌿🌍

Elephant: Sir I'm gonna ask you to leave.
That elephant literally escorted that rhino off.
Rhino: I’m a living walking tank! 3 Tons of pure muscle! Everybody is afraid of me
Elephant: “say what, bitch?”
Elephants are The Kings of the Jungle! 😀🐘👑
I love how the rhinos act all tough until the elephant comes in
Thats because the Elephant and the Rhino is a Replublican in Name Only Rino.
@NMB Hes kicking the rhino out of the Republican convention 😂.
Yeah but if he gets real good with the horn in the head or stomach..it's lights out.
its different story if its horn is long and sharp. i think it may break down and some lose its power because of it
The real kings of the jungle!💯
The elephant be like " go on now , GET !
Great footage. Thanks for sharing
As much as I love Rhinos, Elephants simply out class them in every sense. Elephants are about three times heavier and about five times taller, it's just no contest.
And cleverer too. 🙂
Lol I love how the elephant just gave the rhino a pat with its trunk at the end
2:12😀
still like bull fighting more or or mountain goat or horn deer fight. still i think bull fight is a lot more skillful with its horn. bull is just pure muscle, long horn, and fighting really well with its horn.
he might have thinking about giving rhino a pat with his second trunk, too
Rhino's are badass.... Until they meet an Elephant
The same applies to Hippos
An elephant's resilience is tested in the arena of animals fights.
Rhinos and elephants are the epitome of frenemies.
Tfw you're the 2nd largest land animal, and then the largest shows up - and it's twice your size. 😂
Ffffffffffffffffffff
Yup, fail :P
More like 1 quarter more of your size, and much weaker than a Rhino...
@MinutemanSam
Sorry but your pathetic imagination doesn't work in the real world
Oh no, there prehistoric creature goes again.
@@prehistoriccreature1800 this is the 2nd video of Rhino vs Elephant where you tried to defend rhinos 😂😂. Sorry but elephants would destroy rhinos. This has been documented
It looks as if they were friendly and not like fighting
So based on several of the videos I've seen, elephants don't seem to like rhinos very much. Meaning at all.😂🤣
Очём вообше думают носороги когда идут на слона.😮я видел как слон моментально пробивает носорога бивнями и всё закончился плочевно
Не думают.В этом и разница.Носороги--тупые. Это--правда.
If only people were this smart
The elephant offered to scratch the rhinos back. That's all
Adam Adam it's because the rhino's back is too itching. That's all.
The elephant is the boss of land animals, but the rhino is a close second, these two powerhouses get a lot of respect from all other land animals,
Rhinos are more powerful
@MinutemanSam
Yes they are
Oh no, there prehistoric creature goes again.
Prehistoric Creature no they aren’t.
Prehistoric Creature here’s a spit of facts for you. Male African elephants weigh about 13,000lbs, while a male white rhino weight about 5,100lbs
Elephant tusks are stronger then the strongest bone in our body unlike rhino tusks.
Rhinos can’t do massive damage to an elephant for two reasons. 1 elephants are literately twice a rhinos side 2 they both have very thick skin so they couldn’t do much but tease each other anyways.
Usually the elephant would attack first and get a good charge and might just pierce the rhinos skin. Elephants being tall, can easily just crush a rhino effortlessly with its own body weight. Elephant proportions make it easier to move, so they would be more agile in a fight. Hope that clears it up..
And lions are supposed to be king of the jungle. Until the elephants and rhino's show up.
The Lion live in savanah not the jungle. And fyi lions can kill both elephant and rhino , check UA-cam
@@HamoodiClash Check yourself. One lion never kill and adult ellephant.
Animals fights involving elephants are a testament to their adaptability
He showing that Rhino who the real boss is..
You are an idiot if you think an elephant can do shit to a Rhino..
@MinutemanSam the young bull killed 10 over a period of 2 months , not 40.
@@prehistoriccreature1800 Maybe you're the idiot.
if it was big male rhino that elephant wouldnt do shit
@@dodododes Lies you tell. Elephant's are known for killing rhinos.
Este sim é o verdadeiro Rei da Selva !
This is not a fight, this is kicking a noisy customer out of a supermarket :D
Great rare video
momthe
greatest

They're friends...
2 tough guys!!!
I think he needs a friend.
Rhino & elephant like we just playin ya'll😏
They look like Kung fu panda and master shifu lol 1:45
wtf
Elephant was being a bully!!
The rhino is the biggest dude that is at Gold's Gym any given day. The elephant is The Rock when he walks into the same Gold's Gym. It's over.
He freind
I’d rather watch them cuddle instead
It like watching Whoopie Goldberg fight Rosie O'Donnell.
😁😁😁😁🤣🤣
Пил акырын мамиле кылып жатат. Чындаса жаман болмок керике
One and only one animal that can touch the body of rhino
Lol. Słuch a bullshit. Rhinos themself are giving their body for birds which it from insects
@@zepter00 😂😂😂
Hippos own rhinos
@@cozartboy1573 hippos are smaller than rhinos and have no way to pierce rhinos thick skin.
On the other hand rhinos have their horn which can pierce hippos skin.
So rhinos are stronger.
@@ishanparbhakar7150 rhinos are literally scared of hippos. A rhino would gourd a hippos mouth but the hippos teeth would pierce the rhinos head and jaws. It can literally bite off the rhinos horn lmao
鬼食泥！！
Classic bullying !!
Babar has had enough of Rataxes and his shit.
Yes hahaha.
Ah! The music! That's why I check out these vids. NOT!
Rhino 🦏 SINGH LIKE A GOOD
Youngsters playing ... 😉
That soundtrack is a bit much.
🤔💭Then why Elephants don’t do all that when it comes to Lions?
Cause lions don’t mess with elephants anyway
@@djpermian5078
You idiot, Lions hunt and kill elephants
Elephants are scared of Lions...
@sumesh s pinarayi
That's so illogical that I'm almost laughing.
A Rhino would flatten an elephant.
Not only that, but even if the Elephant would be stronger (which it isn't), the Rhino can easily run away and the elephant can't touch it anymore
@sumesh s pinarayi
WHERE'S the report? Pictures? Proof? Videos? You have nothing lmao
Could possibly just be playful behaviour? I mean look how other animals play. They bite each other but dont draw blood. Sort of the same scenario but for herbivores, no?
Elephant is too big to strick and Rhino is too small and weighted to take over...... End up with compromise
Rhinos are much stronger
@MinutemanSam
Yes they are u troll
No they aren't
USA commentaire says who has the biggest missile
Тупорылый Носорог понимает только силу !
Now we can say that the white rhino was the second largest...
Not at all
Yes
Still Rhino are brave to survive contact with big elephants always
Nelly the elephant just wants to be friends
The elephant is trying to be a vellain.
War Mafia ,
This is not a fight I want to see a fight
Laiane Godoy - Dont think they actually do attack one another. Nobody witnessed or recorded such. At least that I could find.
This rhino was probably lucky to survive (we don't know how badly he was mauled there):
ua-cam.com/video/a8rWoDducpE/v-deo.html
There's no recordings of actual fight to death I think, but every now and then they find dead rhino with deep stab wounds delivered from above, clearly an elephant's signature. So it does happen sometimes. Aggressive bull elephants in musth, like the one in video above, are the usual suspect.
Mandrak789 - Yeah. Hearing the Rhino cries is maddening. May that Elephant burn in HELL
Well, elephant was in musth, they are very dangerous at that time. Rhinos habit to stand their ground and not to retreat easily isn't doing them any favor either: they cannot do much against determined big elephant.
There was also a series of violent rhino deaths in South Africa's Kruger park in the 90s: about 10% of their whole population has been wiped out by one group of young elephants. Reason? In this case, not the musth, but something else rather bizzare: elephant population at that time was increasing too fast, so the management decided to establish control by killing number of adults. It turned out that the young who were left to grow up alone, without any authority who would've taught them to behave, literally became delinquents. You know, walking around all day long just looking for trouble; and they picked poor rhinos as favorite target. Lesson learned, I guess.
These are relatively rare accidents, though. Yes here and there some rhino fall victim to an angry elephant, but generally, they co-exist in peace and mutual respect.
Mandrak789 - Yeah. By far the greatest threat to both Elephants + Rhinos are Humans themselves killing them for their Tusks/Horns
After more than 100 presentations of Elephants babies, to
see the bargains of Blacks to the service scare me, for example a baby elephant
was attacked by wild dogs, the gangs killed them, and they healed the Elephant
baby, the life in the jungle is not Thus, the number of elephants is 100
elephants 1, an animal of the jungle. I saw how a middle-aged elephant attacked
a small buffalo to kill him, heard the laughter of black gangs to see how he
killed him
It just picked on one of the smaller Rhinos, in an unprovoked fashion.
A less-than-average smart elephant?
Not really, he done it in full view of the rhinos friends and family, knowing full well they would all bitch out. That's called being bold, and (crucially), strategic.
Yeah, you could say the elephant chose someone he knew couldn't do as much as one of the others, but when all those others fail to do shit to the elephant in return, that makes them all the punks, not the elephant.
It shows that when it comes to it, the rhinos are impotent. And so the elephants reign over them.
@@fionnbharrduffy1005 Are you sure Rhinos go help their kind, if they think they have a chance to?
I thought maybe it's their style to be careless about what happens to their fellow rhinos.
The biggest rhinos cannot stand up to a elephant they will lose every time
@@joenewman6494 That was a small elephant.
I will agree if it's a bigger one.
But also, we see 1 elephant and several rhinos. So, unless there were other close elephants, I think if they cared about their "relative" they would do something.
Then again, maybe if a team of rhinos team... against one elephant, days later they'll have to deal with the elephant's team of elephants teaming against them.
I don't know much of these dynamics.
2 fat, fighting!
הקרנף היה קטן ביחס לקרנפים אחרים שהיו שם
Elephant is just being playful. He's trying to make the rhino his buddy. Besides that looks like a teenage elephant. So it's normal for him to make friends with his fellow animals.
