Everyone knows baby elephants are extremely cute creatures, but what we don’t is they’re fun-loving animals, too.

“I thought he was adorable, just like any baby,” Robertson explained for CATERS NEWS. “He was full of energy and looking for someone to play with. After a while he threw himself down on the ground and his older brother came over and started touching him playfully with his trunk, as if to ask him to come play, to which the baby responded and got up and started climbing on his brother.”

The baby elephants’ time continued for a few more minutes and at some point they even reversed the roles. The older baby elephant threw himself on the ground and his little brother rushed to climb on him.

Such lovely moments are very common among the elephant herds. They are very protective animals when it comes to their little ones. Apparently they also very patient and carefully with their younger relatives.
