This baby elephant is curious about everything despite being fresh to the world. The way he approaches the visitor makes that clear. You can see in the video how the elephant touches the wOᴍᴀɴ’s face as it seems curious as to why her trunk is not there.
Most likely, he is unaware that the wOᴍᴀɴ is not of the same species as him and is not a member of the elephant family. The small elephant is puzzled and attempting to figure out where the trunk might be hiding, as seen in the video’s opening sᴄᴇɴᴇ. His hilarious reaction when he can’t locate the trunk is priceless!
The upper lip and nose of an elephant are fused to form the trunk, which is essential to their survival. As a result of having more than 10,000 separate muscles, it has a great deal of dexterity.
Elephants utilize their trunks for the same purpose as humans do while gathering information, as how we do it with the internet. It appears that this naive young elephant is only trying to “Google” the wOᴍᴀɴ’s nose, but his search is unsuccessful. Elephants will typically use their trunk to find food and water, and they have an incredible sense of smell to aid them in this.
