While guiding in the Kruger National Park, me and my guests came across this breeding herd of elephants who were about to cross the road and we decided to stop and watch them cross. That's when this little one appeared from the long grass and had us entertained for a while. He clearly was frustrated with his trunk if you look at the way he was shaking it, blowing air through it and trying to step on it. The reason he is doing this is not known but it could be that there might have been something in his trunk that made it itch or maybe he just didn't understand this long thing on his face... either way it was very funny and made our day...

this video is hysterical. the poor little guy is trying desperately to control his trunk, but hasn't quite got the hang of it yet.

The front foot goes up a few times,, I was thinking it was going to step on it to hold it down! I've heard they can be out of control for the 1st few months, that's the most drastic I've ever observed it. It was adorable! 🐘😻😻

Baby elephant is the only 200 pond looks lovely and cute.
Elephants have over 40,000 muscles in their trunks and it can take up to a year, sometimes more, before a baby elephant learns to coordinate them to be able to use its trunk properly, that's what the baby is trying to do. Until they manage to do this they will just use their mouths to get fluids, rather than using their trunks to suck it up and blow it into their mouths.

I also equally love the interaction between the baby's slightly bigger brother who goes to rest in the middle of the road but big sister or cousin says.."oh ohhhh..no you don't!" ...and he stands up straight then he goes to try it again then momma (either his or his aunt) turns around and comes back and for sure makes sure he gets the message "not to sit down in the middle of the road especially in front of humans!" What "fantastical "interactions just like humans. Wonderful creatures!!

the bigger baby I think when it laid on his trunk they do that when something is up there that shouldn't be. the baby baby > I always think of The Marvelous Toy song of Peter Paul and Mary when I see the babies see their trunks for the first time and what to do with it. "and whirl when it stood still" enjoy.

I agree they are majestic giants. It's obvious they are gentle and protective with their younger family members. They can be extremely 'un-gentle' in nature when they have to be! They certainly command respect. Btw- have you seen the clip of the safari who came across several HUGE and lots of smaller and baby elephants? The photographer was on/outside of the jeep, they surrounded him and were within inches of this poor/lucky guy. The matriarch decided to let them cautiously back up and away, but omg.. It was thrilling.

This elephant is a female and apparently the matriarch of this herd. Elephants are evolving to not have tusks due to civil wars in some African countries and poaching (some wars were financed by poaching). She may have only ever had the one tusk. www.google.com/amp/s/relay.nationalgeographic.com/proxy/distribution/public/amp/animals/2018/11/wildlife-watch-news-tuskless-elephants-behavior-change
