Mother Elephant Protects Calf From Tourists

Incredible video showing how a mother elephant stops her calf from going any closer to spectating tourists. Almost as if she is saying "Don't talk to strangers".

Like all kids...the little boy was curious. Like all moms...the mother was protective.

elephant calves are like human toddlers. Super inquisitive, outgoing, curious, and very very playful. I feel sorry for the mums who have to keep making sure they stay out of trouble lol

Probably one of the best elephant videos I have seen.

How gentle the touch by the mother... and how clearly the baby understands what she meant; just adorable...

I just went to heaven looking at this sweet mother and her baby elephant, such precious animals. There is so more joy in observing them and respecting their magnificence than harming them, those people are missing out on so much.

I noticed how the baby backs off at the gentle touch and when following her goes to the other side away from humans. What wonderful intelligent animals! The baby understand perfectly.

"Mama, what is that?"
"They're worse than the Lions baby, keep away"

[hemalkarambelkar]

Baby: "I want to play with these animals"
Mom: " Keep away from them, they are most dangerous and unpredictable. You have no idea what you dealing with!!!"

Elephants are amazing! The more we learn about them the more fascinating they are! Thanks to all those who work hard to protect them.
