What a sweet interaction. I love the little squeaks from the baby elephant as it learns to navigate the waters and receive hugs and attention from the boy. This was great to watch!

How perfect would that be. He obviously has won over the trust of the mother or heโd have been swimming with the fishes. ๐

Watched every second, what a great life for Both the Elephants and the Boy, hopefully he will be with them his entire life, sharing their friendship is really special.

Raise your hand if you wanted a baby elephant pet when you were a kid ๐ค

Not jealous not FREAKING jealous at all

Have you taken the Elephant for a walk today?!!!

Silly little elephant backing up from being splashed. Apparently, nobody likes being splashed first. Bwahahaha! This would be such a great experience playing in the water with elephants.

I usually wash my elephants on Saturday.

I had this experience at a sanctuary outside Chiang Mai. I was indescribable

It would definitely be one of the best days of my life the water level would rise from all of my Tears ๐ฅฒ๐ฅฐ

A baby elephant and its mama. She must really trust the guy who was playing and splashing around with the baby.โค๏ธ

Look how happy they are the 3 of them. Thatโs a beautiful way of life.

Read the book โModocโ the true story of a boy and an elephant born on the same day in Germany. One of my favorite books.

Ethical animal sanctuaries don't allow interactions like this (and don't have breeding programs). This is likely what is happening behind the scenes at this place ๐If u like this post, ur literaly fueling horrific abuse of elephants

better make damn sure you know that momma !

Oh to be loved and trusted by an elephant. โค๏ธ

He splashes her- which scares the babe. He comes over, โapologizesโ to gain trust. Plays, placing water on her. THEN SCARES HER AGAIN BY SPLASHING HER FACE. Plays.Then forces water into trunk. Plays.Then entices her into dangerous water. Wtaf? No wonder mama stays close.Not cool.

So lovely to watch. I especially love that mom apoarently fully trust the boy with her baby ๐ค And fir the life of me, I cannot understand how some people only see a hunting trophy in these or any anima, or don't care harming or killing them for profit ๐ก

Mama stays close to her baby though, the current is strong and the boy plays dangerously with him.

Don't bathe with captive elephants . Look up The Crush . It applies to all baby captive elephants whether you ride , bathe or be entertained by them.

Why would he encourage elephants to come in to rushing water.

Thailand has whatโs called a โworld elephant dayโ where the elephant is revered and shown appreciation

Thatโs beautiful. I love it. Mama kept a watchful eye out though didnโt sheโฆ..

......and he gets to carry a machete strapped to his side. Ok, dream job. ๐

The elephant in Paradise shall wash Messiahโs feet and sprinkle there with tender care the Children Small and Sweet.

Getting paid to travel and meet new people sounds like the perfect adventure. I truly hope you get this chance! ๐โ๏ธ

Little squeaks โค๏ธ

@amylmaclellan The young man clearly loves his friends. It is adorable to watch their interactions! ๐๐ฅฐ

It must be a wonderful feeling to experience this.

Go to Chiang Mai, Thailand - you can do that there and itโs so fun!

I would trade all my good just to spend the rest of my life playing with little elephants like that

Everyone needs a hug and some tlc.

@nakmuayracer can i do this in Thailand??

Me to โฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธ
