This takes "elephant in the room" to a whole new meaning. LOL
Dracorider 19 A..hAhA
Yeah...wonder what elephant(S) in a room mean??? 😳
Underrated
He is not stealing..
Just collecting TOLL..
Haaaahhha good one 👍😊
Imagine just chilling in your front desk and then seeing these elephants walking by and they're like "Hey Frank"
... "Hey Martha".
People are upset with the resort but the resort still gives them the right to migrate through. If anything, the resort probably offers them security from predators.
Lol ,
Predators meaning humans.
@@HoneyBadgerVideos Poachers, to be precise. After their tusks (for the ivory trade, which is now banned in most countries, but this doesn't put people off).
People who are “upset” can go to hell. Stay somewhere else
Elephants > People
Clerk: So Mr. & Mrs. Elephant, do you have any luggage to check in?
Elephants: Yes. Just our trunks.
Hah
Love it. Thanks for the laugh. All the best from Canada.
This needs more attention
lollllllllllllll🤣🤣🤣🤣
The mama elephant said to the receptionist" book my family &I will be back same time next year & plant more mangos, we eat a lot"
Hahaha
I think they were jackal berries, not mangoes (too small)
🤣🤣🤣
@@juliansydney9819 There are some mango varieties that are that small.
@Victor Joseph thanks Victor!
So sad that these beautiful animals are just exploited for their tusks, nobody needs an elephant tusk except an elephant
Right.
Yeah :(
No zoos kidnapped them from Africa

"Guys, I really think we should address the Elephant in the room."
"Which one?"
😭
😂
:3
They have every right to walk through, they've been doing it long before man was there!
Cool off it's just a few words
@@Pearg0ld stop telling everyone to cool off, they all have an extremely valid point
I like that they didn't try to deter them.
stephen wedderburn ok, but we took the area. Just like any other animals, we areas away from other animals. Unlike them, we let them in our land.
Well in nature animals take over territory. Animals fight for it. If you want it you take it. survival of the fittest. That’s how nature works.
They are very polite guests. Even the baby is extremely well-behaved.
I appreciate the fact that the staffs and owner of the lodge understand how special this is and allow them to casually do what they had been doing for years. This lodge is sitting on gold mine. No other lodge have this.
Imagine trying to stop a family of full grown elephants with anything short of weaponry.
It ain't gonna happen
The lodge was built on the trail( highway) of these elephants. The herd of elephants never changes its path! It was a heck of a problem when they were building it. It isn’t the other way around. The elephants have chosen to live with it since they’ve never been disturbed. Usually they trample on anything on their way when they are agitated! The lodge was built for commercial purposes.
We are lucky to enjoy these clips to learn how Africans, Zambians in particular peacefully live alongside with their wild animals.
@@mosesm6040 love how you typoed “wide”, ‘cause you got that right, anyway! Also, “wild”!😆
@@ColRusSer Thanks for the correction. The words are picked up while writing with my iPhone due to autocorrect. I needed to read over again after writing( something that I seldom do).
This never happens at home where I am glued to my laptop but I can’t afford such luxury at work and again during break period to kill some time. Again thanks!
Elephants: Oi mate, table for 14 please. With one baby chair
I don't know what it is. Just seeing elephants puts a smile on my face
Same🤗🤗🤗
Me to 🐘
People still come and enjoy this beautiful video after so many years
@John Bob I agreee! They so cute xoxoxoxox >_
Based on what I saw in this video, the elephants have made it clear that "If you leave us alone, we will leave you alone." This willingness on both sides to go along with this concept is why it has worked out for both sides. The elephants get continued access to the mango trees, and guests of the place get amazing pix and videos, along with the thrill of being close to wild elephants. Thanks for the post. I really liked it. I am disabled now, and have to do all of my travelling from my armchair. This was a great trip!🤗😄
Baby decided to take a nap in the lobby...adorable.💕
"So the humans built this building on our path to the food..."
"So what? Not our problem."
*takes dump in the reception*
"What are they going to do..."
Elephants are also highly intelligent, emotional and compassionate creatures. And it's true, they never forget. Do an elephant a kindness, and you have a friend for life. Harm an elephant, and they will remember that, too! However, they're also forgiving. In places where elephants have been harmed for poaching or due to war, they will, over time, forgive the humans and not act aggressively! Better than many humans!💕🐘🐘🐘💕
Elephants didn’t encroach on human area, humans built a lodge on the ancient path of the elephants!
So True..
I was gonna say that. 👍👍👍
Well, not exactly
Yes true and correct
The baby elephant 😍 what a little meatball! So cute taking a nap
That resort must be pricey to stay at considering you get to see elephants roaming around inside the reception hall lol
All of you here, please note that there is something called elephant corridor, it is a path where elephant will always pass, this resort is build purposedly on this path to attract tourism and make money. Usually this is not allowed in many countries to protect the existence of the animal, however in some countries coruption is higher than the sky...
Ur making out as if they done a crime I mean Yh it ent natural but. If that it’s good it’s their offers them a safe passage and protects them from poachers and predators while they are there
ohh.. nooo. that's awful, i never knew that!, thankyou for informing us.
@@exotikz7905 Nature have already provided them a jungle with privacy which elephants needs. Human cannot offer them anything. When it comes to poachers, once the elephants come out of the resort they still have this danger other than if rangers will do their job properly which in these countries they are corupted, take money from poachers and allow them free passage. Now the elephant have no where to be, note also that an elephant at some stage of their life goes through a stage when they are very hyper can attack anything and if they pass through this resort while being hyper the hotel guard kill them.
@@naiguennarrainen1126 Yh but as humans we can respect that privacy n not kill them for Ivory
I was wondering why they would build the ceilings to be just high enough to fit a full grown elephant.. thought it was a coincidence but this makes more sense.
Animals are good souls, and elephants too me seem like a sacred species by which I mean they are proof of something beyond our comprehension: they think, remember, and our just good creatures. Save the Elephants!
It's like that joke: "where does an elephant sit? wherever it wants to" only it's not a joke, at all.
The elephants aren't trespassing if the villa was built on their territory
Human arrogance in a nutshell
I give credit to whoever constructed the floors at that Lodge because no one could have expected that much pressure per square foot inside of some place
There's probably no basement.
I believe they could, and did, expect it. I believe it was done deliberately. What a tourist attraction1
Amazing!!! I heard the commentator say that the Elephants have encroached on human property, but isn’t it the other way around? The Elephants just continue their routine
Yeahhh I heard that too..I'm like WHAT
“Encroached on a human area.” Nah. That tree is older than the hotel. They were going there first.
“Mommy, what are those weird skinny things watching us?”
“Oh- those? Those are the apes sweetie, don’t mind them, a lot of them don’t hurt anybody and just watch the other animals. They’re weird, but alright.”
“Can I play with them?”
“Y’know, I don’t know. Try it, if you got trouble call us.”
Elephants are so beautiful and calm..
"The elephants had no intention of changing course"
I mean why should they?
@isa t1000 and nothing to belongs to the animals...
We're supposed to share everything...
Of course they shouldn't but we live on this planet as well and it is not our choice to be around too. We have our own way of living and we don't have thick skins so we mostly die without building houses and etc. It may be not very good to build it on the elephant path but if you look in another way - predators won't reach those elephants there. The things are not always black and white
@@cryrustmusic this is also true.
The baby even got a nap rite there just like human babys they also take a nap Everywhere and anywhere.😃
0:28 imaging checking in at the hotel and have to wait in line behind an elephant 😂
Wellington taking nap on floor made me realize that kids are unpredictable no matter of what kind.
These are the types of videos I like during the stay at home situation.
Absolutely magnificent and I take my hat off the the lodge owners for allowing them to come through the property each year. Something so VERY SPECIAL and you have NO IDEA what incredible trust you have built with this herd. Amazing and THANK YOU for giving them the opportunity to be able to freely visit their special place. We have encroached on THEIR territory so sharing it like this is just wonderful. A time when humanity is also at its best. Xxx
+Gina Boxley yes and the ones that come after will inherit this trust of man ..HOpeully this will last and they wont be chased away by any new owners or new developments in future...after all god made those trees and land for them too
Jessie we so need to build this trust. Man had slaughter them for generations. We have to learn from these gentle giants that we can live in harmony xxx
+Gina Boxley ,
You are absolutely correct. The resort should be congratulated for their vision to maintain the wide access, the elephant corridor that connects direct to the mango grove. I hope it was no accident. If the access was narrow, it is difficult to predict what would happen. The guests should exercise caution and preferably be less seen, Standing in the open to take photos is extremely foolish. The elephant is unaware of his or her strength and the power it processes, they are wild, it is foolish to think they are tame. The animals should not be pushed to make sudden decisions. The resort should publish basic rules that would control the behavior of the guests and strictly ensure that the rules are observed if not it could threaten the resort. The elephants are strong enough to pull the resort down in a morning. Ashley de Vos (Sri Lanka)
Agreed Ashley....yes they are wild animals and their power is gigantic. But they generally are peaceful creatures and should have their space. Xxx
+Gina Boxley , yes, indeed..elephants follow the same migratory routes all of their lives...humans encroach and suddenly the elephants are called rogue. NO such thing. Hats off to this hotel. The plight of elephants is very sad as we read every day about poachers.
So blessed to see these kind mammals not harmed
NEVER EVER USE FLASH WHILE TAKING PIC OF WILD ANIMALS THEY TEND TO BE PISSED
same with many humans
YOU BETTER CALL THEM UP AND INFORM THEM OF YOUR EXPERTISE IN THE MATTER BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE!
Why do I feel like you are speaking from an experience
@@futureshock382 good point on a much more dangerous animal!
Raj, besides opinion, conjecture, and speculation, do you have any proof of that?
I didn’t think so.
Oh, in regard to shouting; STFU.
It's the path the matriarchs mother took, and her grandmother, passed down from generations. An instinct that cant be ignored
@Smileyrie James you dont understand, elephants migrate based mostly on memory of where their mother took them for steady supply of food and water. Without that memory, it would mean death to the entire herd. Elephants truly are amazing animals.
Photographer: "this could be really dangerous!"... then takes a picture with flash.
Haha, right?!
do you have any proof of that?
@@sludge4125 proof of what? the flash? 3:01
@@alfredoprime5495 👍👍👍
I just love the baby taking a nap.
Babies can sleep anywhere! Great mommy's, they allowed it in the lodge!
This takes the phrase “ lets address the elephant in the room” to a whole new level
🥰😂
when we interfere with nature; we should leave enough space to allow harmony and adaptation.
hats off to the owner of the facility.
+Abdullah Alsalhi
Well said.
+Abdullah Alsalhi Yeah, its really cute until they kill some one.
+Neil Huff so kill them?! living won't happen until everybody lives respecting all living things equally.
+Abdullah Alsalhi I'm always saying what you have stated - we have enough built structures per say stop tearing down our earth and let life live the way it was meant to be and protect these beautiful animals and their habitats in every region of this vast world of ours
Abdullah Alsalhi
The elephants are so gentle with everything.
They could probably tear the building down without much bother.
But they walk around with such care and attention.
We were very fortunate to be there when the elephants decided to walk through the lodge to get to their mango trees. It gave us such a joyful and in awe feeling that we will never forget. Yes, the baby elephants are the cutest creatures on earth!
What a blessed awe inspiring humbling experience !
I think it's wonderful that the people who built the lodge as opposed to trying to chase them off, like most humans do, they respected the elephant's enough to allow them to pass through to their feeding grounds. Kudos to them for the respect.
They should lay out a red carpet for these majestic creatures!
♥️♥️♥️🐘🐘🐘🐘 ♥️♥️♥️
There might be clean-up issues if they did that.
Baby: Ah this floor is nice and cool 😁
Love 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 the way they just stroll 🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘 into the lobby like they're looking for a suite of rooms for the family holiday. Priceless encounter. Thanks for sharing. 🌹🌹🌹
This is truely amazing. The humans have respect for the animals and so the animals over time have respect for the humans. Truely amazing!
I wish elephants could talk. They'd have some good stories to tell.
The only mistake in the commentary when he stated the elephants came into the human territory. We encroached on theirs.
+ROBIN SHANE Not exactly. They travel through there each year, but many animals establish territories and none of them give a flip about what other animals happen to have claimed the area. What he was getting at was they're intelligent enough to realize they're coming into an established "nest" or habitat, and being of a peaceful temperament this family decided that rather than attack the people who built a habitat around the mangoes they'd just make it clear that they didn't care either way; as long as these strangers don't bother them or interfere with their lunch, they wouldn't interfere with their new neighbors' choice of home.
Thank you for your input.
ROBIN SHANE agreed!
Again, this is Africa. Humans and elephants have been sharing these lands for tens of thousands of years.
i really like that it was built so the animals can wonder through and feed, it feels nice that its just open like that, and them co-existing with nature in a more healthy way
That sleepy baby is so sweet! ♥️🐘
I'm worried about poachers..
They love when elephants don't fear humans, easier to shoot
while inside the lodge grounds the elephants are well protected as it's walled off hence why the elephants go through the "archway", also the further away from the lodge the elephants get the more protective they get.. it's only at the lodge they seem to let their hair down and relax
@@duomaxwell2293 Did you watch the video?
Mfuwe is my village. So beautiful. And you gave them names
It's almost un-herd of!! Really, the elephants are not encroaching. They are just saying, "We still live here. We know we came first."
When an elephant becomes your friend it remembers you forever and it becomes your friend for life and it will bond forever with us your become part of there family there herd and family is forever with the 🐘....
That's so cool.
And the poachers cand hunters take notice
It's an Elephant's world, we're just living in it.
Dang right
I come from Zambia. We had mango tree in our garden too growing up (but no elephants). Although mangos grow well in the climate here, mangos are not "ancestral" food for these animals. Its not native to the region. Mangos are fruit from India transplanted to Africa relatively recently by human horticulturalists. This is a human cultivated garden the elephants are raiding. Mango trees wouldn't have been there before the lodge. It's a rare treat. They don't find such fruit in the wild.
So you can discount the "old elephant trail" tale. The Luawanga valley is replete with elephants, so you can say everything is a trail. But this is just a good ol' mango-raiding party. This particular group simply figured out mangos could be found in the lodge garden and when they're in season. Definite trespassing.
It worked for the hotel too. Mangoes for tourists! Fair trade I would say!
In India where Asian elephants live, yes it is eating wild mangoes but I agree it’s not ancestral to African elephants to eat mangoes. But African elephants are only tasked to find any vegetable fruit food they can see and find.
I disagree that the elephants are trespassing.
This is one of those situations that you know only works so long as no idiot comes in and spoils the delicate arrangement. Presumably these elephants have never had any bad experiences with humans in this part of Zambia, and therefore have built a trust with them: much like the Deer in Nara park. It's one of those situations that seems too good to be ture, BUT so far it has been here. Pray nobody ruins it
That little baby elephant playing with the car's bumber was absolutely adorable.
*Elephant drops rocks on counter*
"Keep the change my friend"
Such magnificent creatures, we must do everything to protect them
Good feeling watching this in our own Country Zambia....Amazing.
The elephant is so smart and so powerful yet it can be so gentle and so caring it is one of God's most amazing animals he gave mankind to share the world with.
Elephants were here many years before humans ever existed so it’s more he gave mankind to elephants lol
We need more wildlife corridors, places for animals to cross from one habitat to the next without coming into conflict with people. This example is both good and bad. On the one hand, it gives us an opportunity to further study these magnificent creatures. On the other hand, habituating animals to people can lead to more conflict.
People also need to reuse more of our own spaces. Instead of sprawling outward, reuse empty buildings and build more densely inward.
2:40 Looks normal to me.
The resort screwed up the reservation and a kid falls asleep in the lobby while his parents are waiting for the correction.
Haha👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This is one of the reasons I love my country zambia 🇿🇲..ps we don't bother the elephants
Good on you!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
By building that hotel there is a bother in the first place. Nothing spectacular there you invading there privacy 😉
@@bossk2690 clearly you don't understand the essence of building a consecration park 🤦...it was built their not only to protect the animals but also to grow our nations economy through tourist attractions 🤷
Elephants considered ONE of the most powerful animals in Africa. What a ridiculous and careless statement. It is undoubtedly, unquestioningly the most powerful land mammal in the world.
Hopefully, there will still be wild elephants around to do this 50 years from now.
The elephants haven't encroached on the humans space. The humans have encroached on the elephants space.
Well, the elephants need to learn to get good
The elephants need to learn how to not get their territory taken by those humans then.
If that’s the case why did the elephants let them take it?
@MyShepherd23 And I'm sure your God is SO very pleased with what man has done to the earth. Why don't you go and explain your theory to the elephants and see how they react. Take some large brushes with you so they can clean you out from between their toes afterwards. Oh, and don't forget your book so you can point out the relevant verses to them before they stomp on you.
They were like,
“Sure you can build your lodge here, but we get to use the main hall when we take the family fruit picking.”
Wish we could always live in such beautiful harmony with wildlife.
.... so finally, FINALLY, someone actually addressed the elephant in the room!!!!!! I suppose it helped that there were no bushes to beat about. It took centuries but high time 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bring a whole new meaning to 'elephant in the room'.
I stayed at this lodge 30 years ago. It was nice. I can see why elephants return for yearly vacations.
“Hello this is room service”
“This is bob in 203, can you guys keep it down?! It sounds like a herd of elephants are in the lobby”
“Well, you see”
Very, very good one!🤣
lollllllllllllll haha🤣🤣🤣
i have seen children in hotels doing more damage t han these elephants ever did!
+jessie james Have you seen mythbusters bull in a china shop episode? The bulls didn't break a thing.
jessie james what are you talking about the elephants did no damage to it at all
. I didnt say they did.mayb e i didnt express myself in writing well.
I agree totally with you about that.....and its not only kids .Enough said.......
I've actually been here, and this is probably the best way to incorporate human and elephant territory around, people talk about how the humans are encroaching on their routes, but guess what, here the elephants have free water, free food, are completely safe from both predators and poachers, AND can actually socialize with humans at a young age, since elephants ARE dangerous and people still die from attacks every year.
I think that is so sweet because they don't have to pay a thing. The check-in and check-out to eat I love watching the elephants
Not so sweet. I'm sorry but its the same as white christians enroaching african land meant for african ppl n pushing them to poverty and those locals can do nothing other than watching, like these poor elephants.
waiter: “how can I help you?”
elephants: “ four buckets of peanuts please, and extra two for my daughter”
Oh baby Wellington needs a nap😂 looks like a hotel front desk like uh ya can we get two rooms please
People continue to astound me, why would the Elephants change course when the buildings are big enough to fit through? It's to much hard work.
That is beautiful how tons of heavy elephants walk through the hotel and dont break or trash anything yet humans go into their lands and destroy everything so easy...
I was there in Zambia 2019/2020. I had so many incredible experiences. It's a beautiful place to visit.
All the Lodge teams and National Park workers out there are fantastic. 🐘
❤♥️🎊🎉
may both the elephants and the lodge have protection, and good health. hoping to see more videos or find more pictures on this amazing place.
They showed up like
"Exuse us!"
"Don't mind me, I was told some mangoes grow here!"
2:20 "they had encroached on a human area" sorry wot? at the start of the video it clearly states that it was built over an ancient elephant path
You have to love this! What a privilege it is to have elephants trusting people enough to allow a tiny baby to play with your vehicle's bumper. It would be wonderful to be able to witness this in person.
The elephants did not encroach on a human area. The humans encroached on an elephant area. They should have observed the elephants before they built the lodge
No. Wtf. Are u stupid?
GILLIAN Muspic well, it is our area. Just like lions and other animals, we take land.
GILLIAN Muspic no it’s a human area. We’re number one. We’re just being nice to them because we can.
Smfh some "people" can be SO INCREDIBLY STUPID sometimes! Im just FLOORED over skme of the responses ur gettn to u speaking the facts. People have violated animals since the beginning of time-theres no disputing that! But bcuz YOU state historical scientists facts lmdao...they wanna call u the idiot?🤯absolutely mindblowing!!! Pretty sad when ur bashed on for telling the truth ehh?!!ignore those 'humans'
Dionne Dunsmore idk if your joking
Ain't nothing stopping 'em elephants from getting their mangoes.
"Let's build the lodge across the elephant path."
"Sure! What could happen?"
What a wonderful experience to have. Elephants are such beautiful creatures. We need to protect them.
And it's a Bush Hunting lodge😞
Way to address the elephant in the room.
I love seeing baby elephants figuring out their trunks. It's pretty much the same a a human baby figuring out their hands
I can't get over these miniature elephants they call their babies. They are so adorable I can't breathe. Look how they follow the big elephants with their miniature elephant features. I need to sleep to get over this.
Thats like calling a baby a "miniature human" i mean dude wtf we have words for these issues...
I'm sorry, "the elephants had encroached on a human area"??? Ummm, no, the humans encroached on an elephant area. You said yourself that the lodge had been built on an ancient elephant trail.
Thomas Daily I would shoot them because they at my home
You know humans were once animals too, and technically still are right? This planet belongs to humans, just as much as it belongs to elephants. So if humans have settled there, and elephants walk into that area, they are encroaching.
@@fierywolverine5044 the elephants were there first tho, neither are enroaching realistically, the elephants are happy for the humans to be there and vica versa
@@dwolf6584 I agree
@@dwolf6584 Yes you’re correct Elephants and Primates including humans are the only Two beings of moral conscious thoughts and social abilities
This is better than any festival
That hotel lodge has been designed to withstand the size and weight of the elephants... the height, the paving ... it’s deliberate
I'm truly amazed by these elephants'. They show an immense amount of trust to allow humans near this baby. In this case the trust was deserved. They knew this was a safe place because elephants never forget anything. That being said, please don't say they encroached on the humans' because the humans put this building upon the elephants' ancient path.
Right!!! And they did their business and left. And the people were smart enough to realize these were not pet elephants but wild animals looking for food. You observe from a safe place and than God you got the opportunity of a lifetime because the elephants remember the path to their favorite mango trees and are ready for a treat.
You need park rangers to keep elephants away from poachers Becuz once an elephant gets a lot of passiveness from humans. Elephants think that all humans are peaceful without knowing they will be killed by poachers.
Literally, the elephant in the room
