A post about an elephant baby named Musiara is now winning netizens’ hearts. There is a possibility that this calm and polite gentle giant will win you over too. The post, along with a super sweet video, is shared on Sheldrick Trust’s Instagram page.
The organization started their post by writing how every elephant “takes life at their own pace.” Then they explained about Musiara whose pace is “decidedly” slow. “While most of the orphans feel a bit of peer pressure to leave their stockades at the same time as their friends, this little boy refuses to be rushed. See how he saunters out of “Class 1” (the room reserved for the youngest orphans) long after the others, enjoys a leisurely stretch, and only then does he deign to join the rest of the herd,” they wrote.
In the next few lines, they also shared a story about how the elephant baby’s ‘laidback approach to life’ served him well. “One morning last month, two bulls drinking outside the compound caught his eye. He strolled over in a measured walk and proceeded to squeeze himself between them. Because he was so calm and polite, the bulls happily allowed him to join their drinking circle. Afterwards, Musiara scampered over to Ambo and Dololo, no doubt to brag about his successful interaction!” they shared.
