An African elephant stands in a partially enclosed dirt area, holding a large branch or stick in its trunk. The elephant slowly moves its trunk, bringing the branch closer to its mouth, seemingly to eat or chew on it. The animal has large ears and appears calm. The setting consists of brick walls, some with visible concrete or plaster, suggesting an enclosure or shelter. A metal pole is visible on the right side of the frame. The ground is made of packed dirt, with loose green branches and leaves scattered in the foreground and near the elephant's feet. The light suggests it is daytime. The scene takes place in Jos, Nigeria.
