Any elephant with sense would be soothed by it and roll on its back to
pose with a rose between its teeth.

I was once photographing a rhino in London Zoo with an LX and winder.
The rhino seemed to be getting a bit agitated about something, and one
of the zoo-keepers asked me to stop taking pictures (which I did), saying
it was disturbing the rhino.

Personally I'd have thought it was more likely to be the loss of its
freedom, existential angst about poaching, or the thousands of other
people leaning over the pit, eating crisps & ice-creams, yacking away
at each other and firing their pointy-shooty flashes. But what do I
know?

Maybe rhinos prefer Nikon.
