You never know where you will find the best of friends, and sometimes it is where you least expect it. Recently, a baby elephant and a playful dog became best friends at a wildlife sanctuary, and the video is adorable, to say the least.
So, here’s what happened. A baby elephant, all gangly legs and a long, inquisitive trunk, saw a cute, lively dog. The elephant, with its large ears and a long but very delicate trunk, slowly moved closer to the dog. Then came the most beautiful scenes of the movie; the joy that followed.
Initially, it looked like the dog was unsure of this large new friend, but it did not take long for the dog to become more friendly. The two then started playing, and the dog actually ran around the legs of the elephant while the elephant used its trunk to push the dog back. It was like watching two kids at play, and the two of them together were simply enchanting.
The baby elephant was trying to copy the dog’s agility, which was quite cute and comical to watch. The dog was wagging its tail and making joyful sounds, which made the elephant want to keep playing. On one occasion, the elephant even started imitating the dog and made some funny sounds that made everyone in the sanctuary crack up.
The most interesting thing was the baby elephant’s calm behavior. It did not want to harm the new friend it had encountered despite its small size. The dog appeared to get this and stayed close to it, also playing gently.
This shows us that even though animals are different, they can become friends and be close. Elephants are community animals, and anyone can tell that this particular cub is friendly to the extent of welcoming new members of the community regardless of whether they are of the same species or not.
To lift your spirits, you should definitely check out the video with this lovely pair. This is a heartwarming scene that will surely make you feel good and brighten your day.
