This is the amazing footage of a pair of bull elephants rutting other on a road through a South African game reserve, blocking traffic for more than 30 minutes. The two huge elephants pushed and shoved each other across the road in the Pilanesberg National Park, north-west of Johannesburg, in South Africa. The footage shows the two elephants swiping each other with their trunks and trying to make the other back down. The release of large amounts of temporin from the temporal glands inside the elephant's head changes the animal's behaviour. The popular Pilanesberg National Park surrounds a volcanic crater just south of the Botswana border.
