Grumpy elephant picks on warthog at watering hole

The video shows a bull elephant that is not happy with the presence of a warthog, attempting to chase it away with his intimidating behavior.
Elephants are the largest land mammals on earth, and they know it. Because of their size, elephants need to drink water on a daily basis, and lots of it. One thing is for sure, elephants are selfish with their water and almost always never want to share the space around any watering hole with any other animals. We were watching a warthog, peacefully drinking water when suddenly this large bull elephant appeared. The elephant stopped when he saw the warthog and stared it down. The next moment I could see the elephant was not happy with the warthog being at the water. Suddenly the elephant let out a scary sounding sound while mock charging the warthog. All the warthog wanted to do is finish drinking water, and so it did. I was totally amazed to see that with all the threatening behavior coming for the grumpy elephant, the warthog didn’t seem to be fazed by the elephant’s behavior and just moved off a little to continue drinking every time the elephant tried to chase it away. In the end, the warthog won the battle as the elephant realized that the warthog was not being intimidated and decided to leave and find another drinking spot.
