    I'm 71 and when I was around 8 I was able to ride an elephant at the St. Louis Zoo. Through my life I thought about how neat that was. Then I began to think about this magnificent animal walking in circles with kids on top of them. I'm so glad there have been rescues and I know they don't have animal shows any longer there. It makes me sad that I thought how much fun the shows were watching the trained monkeys, etc. I just didn't know how sad they must have been. Thank you to all who rescue and support the freedom of these beautiful animals.

      Not all animals in human care, and used for food, labor, entertainment and as pets..
      ..are "unhappy".
      Most animals in captive management are content happy and healthy.
      There's an interesting perspective presented in Yann Martel's "Life of Pi"
      In chapter 4 he discusses how animals in a [good, ethical] zoo are safer, happier, healthier and longer lived than their counterparts in the wild.
      Life in compressed territories in captive management, is much more at ease for the animals, than having to suffer the cruelties of nature.
      (hunting or starving or being the prey, disease, weather, predators, maintaining territory etc etc)

      YOU got to remember who needs it and is doing the killing and for whom . Thousands of elephants and rhinos have already died since, especially during African slavery when thousands of black people were enslaved and used as mules to carry IVORY to the east coast of AFRICA to MOMBASA, ZANZIBAR and SULIMANI. IVORY was never a thing for AFRICANS since it was of no value.

      I can see him all grown up charging at these jeeps they wouldn't be laughing that's for sure. I wouldn't be I'd be all wet.because it would scare me so I'd pee all over my self. I'd more and likely scream too. Knowing me. But they are so beautiful I seen elephants up close and even rode on one but they were tame ones. Well as tame as they could be. It is a rough ride on an elephant that's for sure. Wouldn't want to ride one no more then I did. But I love these big animals the babies are so cute to watch. To bad they get killed for a tooth growing out of there face. Pounchers should be hung but so should the buyers of Ivory. Do them both would stop the killing of these animals. Well it would help stop it.

The gentlemans amazement and sheer joy was as genuine as I've ever seen or heard! You could tell straight away that this baby Elephant is a male, such a young one but already behaving like a Bull Elephant with his mock charges and seemingly unafraid! Absolutely, unequivocally the most adorable thing that I've ever seen! As long as I live I will never forget this!!! Thank you so much! This has made my day, week, month, year, decade!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

    When the babies push their faces into the soil they are just copying the males that do this when they come into musth. Researchers say during musth they get swelling of the temporal glands that presses on the elephants eyes and can cause acute pain, so the elephants try to counteract this pain by digging their tusks into the ground. Others that have observed this say it is a display of aggression, a mock killing, showing what the elephant would do to another. So again while in musth usually and by the males playing. Baby is copying what he has been shown, he just doesn't realize he needs some tusks. lol

      @ss-nc2dy 4 года назад +1

      Since babies travel in the herds where all the adults are female, I kinda doubt this behavior is copied from adult males in musth. Seems like it's probably more of an instinctual mock killing thing.

    The "face planting" thing is their little version of "tusking the ground" that larger ones do to show that they're the boss :D

      Msflamingo2008 male Elephants actually live solitary lives away from other herds once they’ve matured.
      They only ever return just to mate with the females.

    Lucky you, you were at the right place at the right time. I love to watch the baby elephants, I rarely get to see, first the personality of that baby elephant, there’s no doubt if you could watch it every day you would be entertained. Then to get the shots of the baby suckling is wonderful. I envy anyone who has access to the babies more than most, they probably still get a thrill out of watching the babies eat. Thanks that was great.

    Young baby elephants are so funny!! James is my favorite guide on Safari Live. His knowledge, sense of humor & laugh is proof of how much he enjoys what he does. I would love to have him as a guide for a game drive---I"m sure he would prove to be the best guide there is!!
