Adorable Elephant Mocks Friend Struggling To Get Down A Steep Slope, Watch

Elephants are known for being intelligent and wise creatures, but who knew they had a sense of humour too? A new video posted by IAS officer Supriya Sahu on Twitter has people cackling. Elephants are gentle creatures, but they are also giants and take their time getting around tricky terrain.

Video Of Elephant Mocking Friend Entertains Users Online

In the clip, elephants are standing in line to get down a small step. To the ginormous creature, even getting down a tiny hill can feel like a major task. Something of the sort was the case with the elephant, who was first in line and had visible difficulty getting down the slope. First, it stretched out his front legs and then crawled down the uneven ground.

The elephant was not exactly graceful in its flight down the steps.

The second elephant in line seemingly mocked its friend by waving around his trunk as if laughing at the first elephant¡¯s sloppy attempt. The elephant then went all out and mocked the other elephant by rolling down the slope. The scene felt like a scene right out of an animation film where the animals goof around, making fun of each other much like humans.

The IAS officer shared the video on her Twitter account and wrote, "Who says elephants don't have a sense of humour."

Elephants Are Intelligent And Socially Complex Much Like Human Beings

Elephants have long been known for their strong family ties and social complexity, in addition to their obvious intelligence. The giant creatures are attuned to many values we normally associate with humans, and the video is just another bullet point added to that list.

People online were hysterical after watching the video. While many people loved the adorable video, there were some who did not see any humour in the situation, ¡°That's just a younger elephant who didn't know the proper technique. It did not its forelegs at lower steps rather it slid down.¡± wrote a user.

A commenter noted how all elephants have their own ways to tackle a slope, ¡°Everyone has different tenique.¡±

A fellow mentioned that the elephants face this issue with slopes universally, ¡°I once read or saw somewhere that Elephants can¡¯t go forward at places like these and so they move forward in that manner.¡±
