Have you ever seen a large herd of elephants running in unison? Here's a beautiful moment between an elephant calf and it's herd. Watch as the adult elephants guard the baby elephant to make sure it does not get stuck in the mud.

Better parents than MANY humans I'd say.

@sweetgirlsoles 4 жыл бұрын

That's not really true in general. If an elephant baby has lost his mother, it will almost not be accepted by another mother. I suspect these females are afraid to have not enough milk for their own baby. There are examples where a whole herd leaves a single baby behind. Of course most babies die then. Nature can be very, very hard. The reality is often different than many shown scenes that remind us more of a Walt Disney harmony...

I agree! I saw a video last year of a bunch of scum in India/Southeast Asia maybe. They found a baby Elephant eating some crop they planted. So they threw lit tar on the baby and mother,,! They cheered and chased them while the mother tried to put her baby out!! It is permanently etched into my heart and brain! I will never forget that image. The year before I saw a bunch of Indians who poured gasoline on a baby and we're placing vets if the mom could put it out! They are here on YT. I don't recommend watching them. They made me so angry! The Indian people and some of Southeastern Asia have abused and treated these animals so harshly in order to "train them"! This is why my kids never went to a single Circus show. They love Cirque du Solie! And I'm so glad! They petitioned their school, when they were younger, to stop going.

Hi Jay, it is not just poachers, tribal people shoot elephants in their crops. Elephants cover a lot of ground when foraging. Poaching is probably worse in Africa while problems associated with people encroaching on elephant land is more found in Thailand. I see elephants every time I ride my motorcycle outside of town. BTW: Asian female elephants rarely have tusks. They have an intelligence level comparable to Silverback gorillas.

I love watching animal herd behavior, particularly elephants’. Baby gets in the water, mom rushes over and curls her trunk under it, a juvenile comes to assist. Then - it would be the matriarch, right? - pushes her way in, actually knocks the younger one aside, and takes full control of the calf’s safety. When mom reaches out with her trunk to touch the baby, the matriarch pushes her trunk away and ferries the youngster out of the water. Absolutely fascinating.
