Adorable baby elephant rubs its face in the mud
When it comes to baby elephants and mud, you can be sure it will be an entertaining sight, just like this little elephant strangely enjoying rubbing its own face in the mud.
During those scorching hot days in the African bush, elephants do love to spend lots of time near water and mud as it helps them to cool down. Enjoying a mud bath after a drink and a splash of water is a common routine for elephants. Over and above cooling down, baby elephants also normally use this time for fun and play. This is where the real entertainment starts. It was during a very hot afternoon on a safari in the Kruger National Park, when we came across a big herd of elephants gathered near a watering hole. Just below the watering hole was a mud wallow.
A few elephants were at the mud wallow already and I knew this was where the fun was going to be. While watching the small herd of elephants at the mud wallow, we suddenly noticed one baby elephant on its own, busy entertaining itself in the mud. This baby elephant was not rolling and splashing around in the mud like most others would do. No, this particular baby elephant decided it would be so much fun to take its own face and shove it in the mud.
It was hilarious to watch this little elephant, rubbing its face through the mud, up and down. It even looked like the baby elephant got mud into its own mouth at one stage. Once the baby elephant was done with this hilarious looking behaviour, it got up, with its whole trunk and mouth covered in mud, and quickly ran off to its mother. This was such a funny short moment with such incredible creatures going about their business in their natural environment.
