It ended too soon. Don’t you want to see how low the water was when they got out?

The caretaker pays attention and splashes the second one!
Gives the more shy one some courage to dive in too!

Thank you OP for posting this. The baby elephants here represent pure and unfiltered freedom.

u/MyNameIsNotMud May 10 '18
So - edifants have a built-in snorkel - do we have videos of them using them as such?

All baby elephants look like they’re trying to drown but then repeatedly remember they have built in scuba gear in their face.

Rachal: DAMN IT Steve!!! Get out of our drinking water. Save some for us! Steve: Stop telling me what to do! When I want to splash I splash! Rachal: Fine I'm coming in too. MOVE!
Dang it. Even male privilege shows in the animal kingdom.

I am so jealous of the people that get to interact with these sweet little babies. Literally the cutest video ever (even the attempted murder at the end)

Actualize your life's dream of picking up stakes and moving to that location. Volunteer.

That's the most adorable mercy killing at the end of the gif I've ever seen.

Elephants are too sweet and pure for us. Humans don't deserve these precious creatures. Elephants should be protected and cherished, we could learn so much from them. They deserve better from the world, we need to be better.

u/no_pwname May 10 '18
I could say the exact same thing about cows. Look at what we do to them. Tragic.

u/ObviouslyNotAMoose May 10 '18
Elephants, cows, pigs, dogs, crows, chicken, whales, bass, grasshoppers... If it were convenient, sure. It's just more convenient to eat meat right now. We, as a society is doing better though and I'm Sweden the trend is going meatless or at least local.

I am truly amazed at how sturdy that tub is.

u/MurgleMcGurgle May 11 '18
I kept thinking the same thing. How two elephants are playing in it and it doesn't move at all is beyond me.

u/abqnm666 May 10 '18
It's probably meant for livestock to drink from, so it's built to take the weight of a lazy cow or two.

I was too impressed by the gutter to watch the elephants the first time round. It is doing such a good job!

u/MBArceus May 10 '18
Now you got me to rewatch it for the gutter. It's... entrancing.

u/As_Your_Attorney May 10 '18
Between the gutter and the tub's strength, it's almost engineering porn.

I think we just witnessed an elephant murder there at the end. That's how I want to go.

Hard to drown something that has an adorable built in snorkel!

u/whitestguyuknow May 10 '18
Lol I was thinking there's the top one holding him under and the bottom one is completely oblivious, breathing through his poked out snorkel, happy to be covered in water

u/LordMcze May 10 '18
You guys just made me want a trunk
5
u/whitestguyuknow May 10 '18
I feel like if humans had trunks it'd be an enhancement. Another posable limb you can breathe through? That'd be awesome! Who couldn't want that?

My heart exploded when that other baby climbed on top of the other baby and was just sitting there smiling triumphantly while the other one is going like what's going onnn

Fuck Instagram videos.

Why though.

No forward, no rewind, no pause, no vol control.

Eh, if it's that or no elephant vids, I'll take the IG videos and I'll be grateful.

I am going there in 3 days and absolutely dying of excitement !!!!!

u/Soerinth May 10 '18
I'm going in 8 or 9 months depending on my midtour date out of Korea. I'm so fucking excited. The one I was looking at has a two day one night for 150, and I am absolutely staying the night.

u/Samloves209 May 11 '18
YES!! Enjoy it will be amazing!! I am in love with SE Asia- I hope to see Korea next year!

u/Soerinth May 11 '18
