This is Levi, the son of Mount Camdeboo's matriarch. We estimate him to be about 4 - 6 years old. Levi still regularly tries to suckle from his mother (as he is about to do in this photo). On average, elephant calves suckle for 3 - 5 years, although they can continue for longer if their mother doesn't have a new calf. Sometimes Levi's mother lets him suckle peacefully, but other times she pushes him away.
