      The mother would like to call: 'Would someone like to get a naughty child for free?' But five minutes later her heart is crying and she wants it back. :)

    At 2:00 the mother seems alert to some kind of threat. It's getting dark and she doesn't want the baby too far from the herd's protection. But the baby is like all kids at the pool; "NO I DON'T WANNA GO HOME!".

      When I took this video, Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe was going through a heat wave with mid-day temps around 40 degrees celsius. The wildlife in Hwange are always short of water as there is no natural water in the late dry season and so rely on well water to be artificially pumped for them. The elephant, especially calves were severely dehydrated and were overheating. you'll see how she shepherds her calf and pushes him face first into the mud. Elephants regulate their body temperature by pumping blood through their large ears, which cools them. By wetting their ears it helps them to cool. The calf in the video was severely dehydrated and disorientated hence moms best efforts to cool him down. Thank you all for your great comments, Im glad you enjoyed the video.

    Someone once said that Elephants are almost like people. I've always liked the idea, and this proves babies are very similar to human toddlers having a tantrum. I never wanted to get out of my baths, but I did. No tantrum, my late mother put fear in me to listen to her. I was a spanked child. The year or two before she died I just got over the flinch. She was so upset with herself that she was the one who caused it.
