- During seasonal migrations when herds travel to find new feeding grounds
- In wildlife reserves and national parks with river systems
- During dry seasons when elephants must travel to permanent water sources
Wildlife documentaries often capture these impressive crossings, showing the coordination within elephant herds as they navigate waterways. Adult elephants typically guide calves through the crossing, sometimes supporting them in deeper sections.
For tourists and wildlife observers in places like Botswana's Okavango Delta, Kenya's Masai Mara, or various Asian elephant habitats, witnessing river crossings can be a highlight of their experience. These crossings demonstrate elephants' remarkable swimming ability and their complex social structure where the herd works together to ensure the safety of all members, particularly the young.
