In this case it's play - these are juvenile elephants. In the case of adult bulls, a struggle for dominance.

In this very place, about 5 years ago when the water level was very low, a bull was killed in such a fight. The park rangers removed the tusks & slit open the skin to give scavengers easy access. During  the next two days the hyenas, jackals, crocs, vultures & maribou storks cleaned up. I heard about it too late & only saw the left over skin & bones.

Ditto. Beautiful shots.

Alan, what is the “wrestling match” about? Older male asserting dominance? 
Courtship ritual? Play?
