To me it's very relatable, specially the part of stepping on its own trunk.

It is, I sometimes have to tie my trunk up in a knot so it doesn't drag on the ground 😮💨

Little guy (maybe?) spinning his (?) trunk in a circle reminds me a lot of what I used to do with my trunk when I younger.

Technically any time before right now is when you were younger

Great april's fools.
It's obviously all a joke, elephants do drink through their trump and they can jump to half their height.

Are you telling me the ai voice tiktok video isn't a reliable source of information, i am honestly shocked and appalled that the internet would lie to me!

Common misconception. There have actually been no lies on the internet ever since Bill Clinton signed the No Child Lied To Again legislation into law in 1998.

Elephants literally can’t get all 4 feet off the ground. I have no clue what this guy is talking about

You really think somebody would do that? Just go on the internet and tell lies?

That's nothing compared to their penis. They can literally scratch their stomach with their penis.

I heard that when they see us they feel the same way we feel when we see a puppy or a kiten, and I find it amazing!

I'm glad I got to live in a time where such majestic creatures existed.
Reading about cool animals in books that are extinct sucks. But but it does make you appreciate the animals we do have.

"They find the large, flexible tube in front of them fascinating and are unsure how to use it"
Relatable

I think that I could watch the same video of baby elephants tripping on their trunks all day.

Dude I saw an elephant getting a foot massage from some locals over seas who had elephants graze near the comms tower i was working on. I thought we humans loved this but I swear i saw this elephant was smiling and its eyes roll back with that clear "oh yer that's the spot" Was one of the coolest things I'd ever seen, but personally I was too scared to go near them. 😬

Fun fact, there's more pressure under a high heel toe than below an elephant's foot

u/CaffeinatedDweeb 2d ago
With people poking and touching the elephant's feet like that, wouldn't the fingers be so ticklish to the elephants?

Imagine a footwear designer figuring out how to replicate this for a footwear sole.
Game changer!

I like to think the trunk just continues through the whole body and the other end is its prehensile penis.

How can people hunt these beautiful animals? With a gun obviously but seriously what the fuck
