“A masterclass from a pachyderm on how to overcome obstacles: 1) Carefully test how strong the challenge really is & where it might have least resistance. 2) Slowly apply pressure at the point of greatest leverage of your own strength. 3) Walk confidently through…,” he wrote along with the video.

The video shows an elephant on the side of a road with a fence in front of it. Undeterred by the obstacle, the animal uses its legs to carefully pull down the fence. The video ends with the gentle giant crossing the road to go to the other side.
