Nope you are all right he is standing on the rock,this is because at the moment he is not 100% sure about the sand,but he is slowly getting used to it.

I thought it was pretty unusual behaviour- so he's been spending most of his first day or two balanced on a little rock to avoid the sand? Hope he gets over his jitters soon.
I've known Gorillas that were reluctant to set foot on an unfamiliar substrate, usually its grass, for the first time, but not Elephants that didn't know sand.

As far as I could see, he didn't spend any time perched on the rock today. His introduction to one of the females went well too - karoocheetah has the video.
