A flock of turkeys roam the Refuge, blissfully unaware Thanksgiving was last week. Wild turkeys often travel in small family groups, and as the seasons shift, those groups commonly join into larger flocks like this one. #Elephant #Elephants #Turkey

squirrel. Southern fox squirrels are big, confident, and surprisingly courteous. Known for their steady confidence, these squirrels are less skittish than gray squirrels, often spend time on the ground, and tend to assess rather than bolt. #Elephant #Elephants #FoxSquirrel


Just another day at ERNA, with a quick-to-pivot fox squirrel, Mundi working her stick, and Bo dusting at the pond’s edge. #Elephant #Elephant #FoxSquirrel


It’s unseasonably warm this week, and Bo and Mundi are taking full advantage. They headed straight for the pond, splashing around and covering themselves in their favorite SPF, a layer of naturally occurring Attapulgus clay. #Elephant #Elephants


Tarra and Mundi know how to crash a dinner party. #Elephant #Elephants


A big shoutout to our volunteer Scott K, part of our produce pick-up crew, who not only gathers produce from Publix for us but also cuts bamboo from his property and brings it to the elephants. And yes, the elephants love it. #Elephant #Elephants


Dog and Elephant — best buddies on a crisp fall day. #Elephant #Elephants #Dog #Dogs

Carol’s back, offering another glimpse into elephant behavior—this time, Tarra and Bo share a drink straight from the hose. Volume up! #Elephant #Elephants


Mundi finished her breakfast, then decided Tarra’s serving looked too good to pass up. Tarra didn’t argue—she quietly stepped away. Elephants often resolve small food disputes this way, using calm actions instead of confrontation. #Elephant #Elephants


You wanted more narrated moments, and we couldn’t resist. Carol’s back, offering another window into the behavior of elephants. Volume up! #Elephant #Elephants


Tarra and her canine pals, Mala and Samie, enjoy a beautiful autumn afternoon in southern Georgia. She’s loved dogs since she was a baby in Carol’s care, and to this day, they’re family to her. #Elephant #Elephants


Mundi starts browsing with one foot lifted to stretch higher. Then she drops to her knees, seemingly thinking it’ll help her reach further—but it actually lowers her body and shortens her trunk’s reach. Persistent as ever, she quickly gets back up and resumes browsing. #Elephant


Our habitat cameras follow the elephants where they roam. It’s clear they notice—especially Mundi, who loves her close-ups. 📸 Long-term research by Cynthia Moss (Amboseli Trust for Elephants) shows elephants are highly aware of their surroundings, including cameras. #Elephants


Mundi reaches her trunk toward Tarra in a classic elephant greeting — smelling to gather information and connect. #Elephant #Elephants


Mundi caught on the EleCam in a catnap. How to tell when one of the Eles is sleeping on their feet: • A few inches of their trunk lie motionless on the ground. • Their eyes are closed, sometimes fluttering. • Their body and legs are perfectly still. #Elephant #Elephants


Freshly dug by Carol, this new mud hole is Tarra-approved (and egret-supervised). #Elephant #Elephants


No rain this month, but Bo’s favorite mud puddle is still holding strong. #Elephant #Elephants


Samie picked up a scent and decided his jumbo friend, Tarra, might need a guard dog. #Elephant #Elephants #Dog #Dogs
