Clumsy baby elephant takes a nosedive in the mud
The video shows a baby elephant slowly moving through thick mud before wiping out, taking a nose or trunk dive straight down into the mud.
Watching any baby elephant going about their business in the African wild is mostly an amusing sight. While still a little clumsy, like any child in their first few years, baby elephants have to navigate through all the challenges that living in the wild can bring. While on safari we watched a herd of elephants crossing through a muddy river. While the adults of course found it easy to march through the thick mud, it was a little more challenging for the younger elephants. The baby elephant in the video was treading slowly, one foot at a time. The mother elephant even stopped and looked back to see if her baby was doing all right. Just as the baby elephant looked like getting to the end of the mud, it slipped and smack, face and trunk first, straight down into the mud. Another adult female elephant came past to lend a little support to the clumsy baby elephant, lying face down in the mud. Slowly but surely the baby elephant managed to get back onto its feet and finally got out of the thick mud, making its way straight to its mother. While it was funny at the moment to watch the clumsiness of the baby elephant, we couldn’t help to feel a little sorry for it at the same time. All was well in the end, knowing we witnessed one of the many challenges a baby elephant would have to face while growing up in the wild.
