A captivating portrait of a female African elephant (Loxodonta africana) graces this stunning black background image, captured at the esteemed Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA. This endangered mammal, with its distinctive gray, wrinkled skin and long, curved tusks, is a rare sight to behold.
