Finally, this netizen placed themselves in the elephants’ shoes by hilariously asking the audience not to “tell their mother”.
Kudos to the rangers who rescued the elephants
We hope these six young elephants learnt that though it’s important to have fun with each other, it’s also good to stay safe.
We would like to say thank to the rangers for finding these elephants and rescuing them.
Most of all, that the mother of these elephants will not find out what mischief they have been up to.
