Voi Unit  August   18, 2009 When the orphans reached the western side of Mazinga Hill, Siria and Mzima engaged one another in a tough pushing competition while the others watched. Mzima later lay down in some soft soil, which attracted Tassia. Siria became jealous and moved in to disrupt what was becoming a beautiful game. The orphans then fed, making their way slowly to the waterhole, where Lesanju encouraged Tassia to wallow and stood by him to ensure that none of the others mounted on him whilst he was in the mudbath.
