Young Elephant bulls often have to think a bit before making up their mind what to do. Shaking their head violently before moving off the road looks intimidating but is nothing to worry about. It just means they are finished thinking.
Enjoy your last 2021 week!

Thanks for the info! I’ll bear that in mind next time I encounter an elephant in Middlesbrough!
