FIVE women - including three Brits - got the photobomb of a lifetime when a seven-tonne bull elephant crept up behind them as they posed for pictures.
Jane Burnett, Nicky Walker, and Sarah Daly were taking farewell photographs after volunteering at the Imire: Rhino and Wildlife Conservation in Wedza, Zimbabwe.
But as they snapped away they failed to see the massive mammal pull up behind - just in time to steal the limelight.
"Now that's what you call BIG brother watching you," said fellow volunteer Marcus Söderlund, 24, who took the image.
"While they were posing for the cameras one of the other handlers had got an elephant called Makavhuzi to go up behind them and stay there.
"Eventually they noticed him and turned round and reacted with laughs, surprised looks and smiles."
Jane, from Bristol, Nicky, from London, and Sarah, from Troon, South Ayrshire, were with fellow volunteers Lisa Marie Winther, from Oslo, Norway and Deb Sulzberger, from Tasmania, Australia.
Marcus, an industrial worker from Sweden, is now working and travelling in New Zealand.
