What a superb video!! Maisha is such a marvellous and caring mini matriach, - at such a young age herself!!! It is amazing that she knows that even at her tender years that she is the responsible one for the younger ones. I love how she gets back into the mud after pushing Roho!!

I love how calm and helpful elephant matriarchs and parents are with the little ones! No fussing or drama, just a calm, helpful push to get Roho out of the mud! Good old Maisha!

Are we sure elephants are even real?.. because something this hilariously adorable surely doesn¡¯t actually exist.

Another video from a few months ago showed herd of elephants taking a satisfying bath. The video was posted by Indian Forest Service officer, Parveen Kaswan, in which elephants were bathing themselves in what seemed like a lake. The 20-second-long clip even showed baby elephants enjoying the freshness of the bath, along with the adults. Kaswan had also commented on how the animals love water and therefore, it is quite a common sight to see them indulge in an activity like this, in the wild. Watch the video here.
