When Laura posted the clip of the adorable elephant onto her social media page, she never would have assumed thousands of other people would see the video. The video features the baby elephant’s caretaker engaging in some playtime activities with the infant. The two are using a plastic bucket as a toy, and it’s clear that the baby elephant finds this incredibly amusing!

Although many elephants are still captive in cages at the zoo or circus, it’s great to see an elephant enjoying themselves in a natural habitat at the camp. The elephant’s mom can even be seen nearby, watching over the scene to protect her baby but also knowing that they’re safe in their home at the camp.

Clearly, the elephant is relaxed and comfortable enough to engage in playtime and let out a little giggle in the process! What do you think about this precious baby elephant? Let us know in the comments and be sure to pass this article along to others.
