After a morning cruise we headed off on a ground safari to a nearby Ox-Bow lake. Apart from ALOT of mud (very thankful for the wellies they provided) we heard the sound of a male Borneo pygmy elephant (relatively it is the smallest elephant in the world and orignally came from Thailand). there are only 800 in the area so afraid we heard them but did not see them.
