21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
You shall not pass

This is an image of a Sri Lankan Elephant (Elephas maximus maximus) taken on 01/24/2020 during a safari drive in Udawalawe National Park in Sri Lanka. This big male elephant came across and stood in the middle of the road with full authority, reluctant to move on. So, we along a few others had to sit steadily on our vehicles until the elephant went away.
