Watch: Baby elephants play on road at night while parents forage nearby; internet calls it adorable

There are few animals cuter in the world than a baby elephant. Several videos of the antics of these little jumbos have melted hearts. The latest to join the list is the clip of some elephant calves playing at night.

The video was shared by Indian Administrative Officer Supriya Sahu. The short video shows two baby jumbos playfully tussling in the middle of a road. While the adult elephants are foraging, these two calves wander out to the middle of the road and start playing with each other. One of the calves places its head on the road while the other pushes it away.

“While their mighty parents are busy foraging, two kutty (baby) elephants have sneaked out to play #elephants vc – a forward,” wrote Sahu while sharing the clip.

Users also commented that while the adult elephants were foraging close by, unmindful of the calves’ antics, they would be there in the blink of an eye if there was any danger.

This is not the only video featuring jumbos that has won hears in the past few days. Recently, the video of a baby elephant being escorted by a herd of jumbos grabbed attention. The clip showed the special technique used by the elephants for keeping their little ones safe. The protective nature of the jumbos won hearts online.
