Elephants are no doubt the cutest animals around. Their adorable demeanour always takes us on a rainbow ride. A new viral video of a baby elephant has mesmerised the internet with its lovable clumsiness and sweet human interaction.
In the video, the little animal can be seen stuck in a muddy ditch between a country road and a sugarcane field. The people filming the video help the baby elephant get out of the mud and pull up his legs as the animal lets them touch it while avoiding aggressive contact. Eventually, the girl in the video pulls the elephant out of the mud while the animal pushes itself out with its trunk. Although the video cuts off in the end, it seems as if the elephant thanked the girl after she helped it.
Check out the viral video below:
From the language used in the video, one can only predict that the incident took place in Thailand. The act of kindness touched many hearts on the internet as netizens praised the girl for helping the poor animal. Some commenters wondered where the elephant¡¯s mother was. One wrote, ¡°Wonder where Mama elephant was, and the herd of aunties? Is this little elephant lost or orphaned?¡± Another added, ¡°Elephants have really great memories. That one will remember her forever.¡±??
Some netizens got inspired by the kindness shown to the animal as they worried about the future of these gigantic creatures on our planet which is swiftly making it hard for them to survive in the wild. ¡°I wish we could provide a better world for elephants but we can't even seem to do that for our future generations,¡± a commenter wrote.?
Instances of elephants entering human-occupied areas have been a common story in the country with the southern fields experiencing stampedes and invasions in their villages by the creatures. With the decrease in the density of forests, wild animals struggle to survive in a human-dominated world.
Nevertheless, human interactions with elephants have been a source of serotonin for all. The adorable interactions give us hope that humanity has not lost its love for wildlife and that the future may hold a different reality than what is expected from its dystopian image.
