Watch Elephant Give Back a Child’s Shoe That Fell Into Zoo Enclosure – SO SWEET


A video was captured showing the moment a helpful elephant picks up a toddler’s shoe to return it. 🐘❤️
The 25-year-old pachyderm used its trunk to grab the sandal from the dirt and reach up to the child after the little shoe fell into the zoo enclosure in Weihai, China.

A nice change from the usual doom and gloom in the recent news.

There was another elephant story recently, but I'm pretty sure nobody wants to hear about that one. Let's just leave it at don't try to make an elephant do something he doesn't want to do when it's really hot. :o

I dont get it why many people today still have probkems to realise that jhigher animal life mforms have emotions, too, can feel fun, sadness, despair, relief. I bet our dogs played tricks on us and if we acted as if we fell for them, they had their fun from it and "laughed". When dolphins jump and squirrels run in wheels - why is it so hard to believe they do it just for enjoying what they do? Its not a question of how many legs you walk on, its only a question of sufficiently supportive brain structures .
