One such Instagram page is Sheldrick Wildlife Trust that is filled with interesting images and videos of the gentle giants. It is a Kenya-based organisation dedicated to rescue, rehabilitation and release of orphaned baby elephants in the area. Recently they posted a video to show a playfight between a few baby elephants.
“Roho is the crowned king of the Nursery! (Really, he’s just the oldest bull in the herd, but we like to add a little pomp and circumstance.) Befitting his royal status, he just sits in his kingdom and waits for his courtesans to come play with him. Here, he is joined by Esoit and Taabu. Although they are quite a bit smaller than Roho, they share his love of wrestling. It makes us so proud to see how Roho gently plays with them, sitting back and encouraging them to test their strength, where he could easily dominate the both. Our little king is turning into a mature, kind bull!” they posted while sharing the video.
