Wonky and Wellie at Mfuwe Lodge
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ม.ค. 2012
- From October to December each year, in the grounds of Zambia's Mfuwe Lodge, the lawn around the fruiting 'Wild Mango' tree becomes the dining room for Wonky Tusk, Wellington and their whole elephant family. They even invite a few approved guests along ... having first taught them the short cut through the lodge lobby of course!
Wellie recently had his second birthday, but you can catch up on his adventures with this look back at some of his earliest visits to the lodge...and meet the rest of the "Tusk" family!

Man living in a harmonious relationship with elephants is a very beautiful thing! Both gain...
Beautiful!
I don't know how many people realize it, but the elephants are being very careful not to knock over stuff, they are huge, but yet are caring enough not to disturb the stuff that is there. Take a look at from this time code 1:58 how the elephant raises it's truck not to know over the table and is also careful not to disturb the stuff in the chair. Elephants are amazing animals.
Elephants are so intelligent and sensitive. It's wonderful to see them peacefully moving through the lodge to graze the wild mangos. Good ellies!
Wonderfull! As long as they remember that wild elephants are by nature protective of each other and can get dangerous fast if they feel threatened
@@roybarron5289 sounds as much as like a human lol
the elephants are so beautifully amazing!!!
An amazing video! Never have I seen such grace and serenity between animal and man! Thanks for this sharing!
I absolutely live and adore elephants....if i were sitting there when those elephants walked through that place id be sobbing ...lol....what an honor and a total privilege that would be and a dream come true 🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘
THANK YOU HEAVENLY FATHER FOR CREATING SUCH AMAZING INCREDIBLE CREATURES!!!
What a beautiful thing to see amazing
They are absolutely beautiful! We need to protect them
They are so big and lumbery...just love them....the babies are soooooo lovable!
I'm returning to the lodge after years and am now in a long term care facility In Charlotte North Carolina.... thank you so much for this precious reminder
The no panick, no shocks..dont mind and they wont mind...true achievement of coexistence...
that is the coolest thing letting elephants in and hang out what a great experience to be blessed. to see up close god bless all the beautiful elephants all over the world
This video is a DREAM come true. May God BLESS these magnificent intelligent animals and please let keep them SAFE from the evil wicket poachers. We MUST very protect these Precious souls from extinction!!
Wonderful that the owners care so much to share their lodge, with this precious elephant family.
More like the Elephants care so much to share the space
I've just see the documentary about this family of elephants, so sorry for the mother, but their tradition of crossing thru the hotel remains! Wonderful

Wow!! what an awesome sight. Captivating, elephants walking to the hotel!!!. The baby was soooo adorable, what a majestic animals.
Got to love the way everybody is so causal about the family passing through the lobby. Good thing the lbby is so wide. Hahah love it
THERE IS AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM !!
This is a riot! Those Elephants seem quite at home with the lodge and guest's. :-)
We are so lucky to have these beauties in our life. Shame on those that attack
wonderful. I wish we could live like that.
Love them so much!
Just casually checking out the gift shop 🎁
Very great moment

Thanks for posting! Love seeing how protective of the little one the whole herd is. Fun watching him practicing the stairs! Cheers, from Chicago.
I wish I could visit this lodge but I’m just waaay too poor, also the world imploded. 😭😭

WoW! So Beautiful!
She thought she'd stop in for breakfast and maybe some shopping, and then a nice nap, before a mud bath ........
Mommy needs some "me" time.
Excellent way to spend the day.
Seen many times this video and Wanna see it again
I love how they help the baby out of the water it's so cute.
Elephants are wild animals. Unpredictable. They are sensitive and intelligent.
lovely Elephants have book they room and foods ande get everthnigs for free . God bless you all.
thank you for this video
Extraordinário! : ))
when he went into the shop 1:49 and 😍😍😍😍😍the eye contact with the lady 3:46
So Cool!!!
❤
Les bébés sont trop beaux et cette espace ouvert pour eux est époustouflant 💖💝🥰
Boy these elephants are big bucks for this lodge! If they are only there when the figs are ripe, they should put some peanuts on the counter to continually draw them in!
En mis proximas vacaciones visitare este hotel, vale la pena, es genial. Estos elefantes demuestran que este lugar es magnifico.

I love all your videos, thank you so very much for posting them!! However, I have a concern for Wonky and her backward tusk. It looks like it is slowly growing dangerously toward her chest. Are there any thoughts on how this tusk can be cut back a bit. I understand it is a tooth, and the growth from this tooth will continue to curve backwards, so cutting the tusk back, or off, will not end the problem. I also understand that Wonky is part of a herd who most likely will try and defend her if medical intervention is attempted...still, there's a wealth of compassionate medical professionals around Africa and I'm sure with due diligence a happy-ending solution for Wonky can be found....right?
Uma autêntica maravilha.....indiscritível .. para quem nunca esteve em África e conhece os elefantes de perto.....
'bwino'!👍
how awesome, just another reg day there??
😄 🐘🐘😍
What a wonderful relationship. Congratulations from Brazil! Can I work for you guys?
1:49 Big Daddy entered the shop to buy clothes, but as he could not find anything fit for his size he just left...
3:58 he’s gettin it.
❤❤❤❤😚😚
i watched this documentary and followed up...in the end wonky tusk was found dead. her baby wellington now comes with his sister, who presumably took over the role of matriarch....do they still walk through the lodge 2016?
Has the poacher got her ? Shes found did due to natural cause ?
@@c0f3324 Wonky tusk was apparently killed by another elephant.
@@Helvetica_Scenario wish I hadn't read this
Oh wow that's a FANG look alike. The only difference is Fang's right tusk is rotated backward! How curious. Wonder how many or what percent of ellies have this. Cool footage. LOL...wonder how much they have to budget for furniture and dish replacement.
Cam you please give me the name of this wonderfull group who sang this song please I love it.
If they're going to use those elephants for marketing, they should get a contractor to come in and remake those steps to make them a little more elephant friendly. They look a little dangerous for big elephant feet
You are very observant
I have asked them the same thing, wouldnt take much to make it more suitable.
素晴らしい

WHAT'S STOPPING A TIGER FROM COMING THROUGH THERE TO.
spectrumlocalb 191, unless they're on holiday, you are unlikely to see any Tigers in Africa.
I can't help wondering why Wonky Tusk's wonky tusk is her left one for half the vid and it is her right on for the other half. Reminds me of some movie stars of the forties who had a mole - oops , I mean 'beauty - spot' and it wasn't always in the same place.
maybe like a photo its in reverse
Fantas👍👍tisk
What is the name of this hotel?
Wow.m
Is the piped music Park-wide with no respite ..... seems to drown-out the Bush, Birds and other Wildlife.
Does the staff get danger pay?
i want to know how much dose it coast to stay at this lounge for a week and how do i book it
Supi
I hope a giant bull doesn't get the wrong idea about the humans getting too friendly with their "women". I've heard of that same dynamic having unexpected and shockingly horrendous consequences with jealous male chimpanzees. The poor human never saw it coming, probably never even crossed his mind. But imagine you're sitting there having a great conversation with some beautiful woman, making her laugh and touch your arm periodically, and you fail to notice her gangster boyfriend watching you and getting madder and madder and madder...
Add to my bucket list to due after CV vaccine
Is wonky tusk still alive
I read that Wonky Tusks has died. Sad.
ok but "wonky tusk" tho
These beautiful majestic elephants are SKIN & BONES. Gov't and/or other BENEFACTOS should do something to HELP THEM LIVE MORE EASILY. Poachers/hunters should be eliminated!!!
how often does this happen? once a day or once a month?
I think it's one only on one season
Angelo Jensen between October and December
Glad ellies are happy. Had terrible times. Bugs in room, rude personnel, rooms were dirty *bedbugs too. Go see ellies elsewhere in more comfy setting. Absolutely NOT enjoyable.
4:30 lil guy is gonna be popular with the ladies
