Recommended for Foundational Grades

An elephant is known to have a strong sense of community and a close bond with its family. A viral video provides further evidence of the powerful sense of kinship.

The video shows a mother elephant protecting her calf from wandering too close to visitors at a national park.

Fun Facts about the video!

  • The video shows a mother tusker preventing her calf from getting closer to tourists who are watching from a distance.
  • It appears as though the mother is trying to teach her child not to talk to people they do not know.
  • A mother elephant and her young child are seen in the video clip making their way across the road.
  • However, when the young elephant sees that there are some people nearby, he starts walking in their direction.
  • The anxious mother quickly yanks her baby away from the curious onlookers.
  • It then covers it with her trunk to keep it safe.
  • At the end of the safari, the gentle giant makes an appearance and politely warns people that they should not approach the calf.
