In this adorable scene, a baby elephant is seen trying to wake up his sleeping sibling. A traveler who was on a safari in South Africa’s Kruger National Park captured the adorable pictures.
Researchers have previously found four distinct personality traits in African elephants, one of which is playfulness, as seen in the picture. Elephants rarely rest flat on their sides, and when they do, it’s usually to relax.
The younger elephant, who was eager to get outside and play, wouldn’t let his older brother enjoy a morning nap in the sun. The young elephant then climbed up onto his sibling using his front legs.
The little brother kept pressuring the older brother to play with him and kept pushing and prodding him, but the older brother remained still. The sleeping brother suddenly decided enough was enough and jumped to his feet, seeming confused by the situation.
The footage, which was taken during a safari in the Kruger National Park, is in stark contrast to what some tourists encounter while going into the bush. Last month, a group of terrified tourists watched as a pride of hungry lions savagely killed a single water buffalo in front of them, showing mother nature at work.
