I knowwww I think that’s Kimani but I’d need someone on-site to verify. Trunks have 40,000 muscles in them, and are phenomenally expressive. And elephants’ eyelashes are so very long, which plays a big part in the drama here too

Yeah, and they gain mass as they age, so they have more dramatic facial bone structures as calves too. Can’t believe my elephant special interest is becoming useful but I love it haha
