An adorable video is going viral this week that is sure to bring a smile to your face!

Elephants are some of the most majestic creatures in the animal kingdom, and though they grow to be enormous, they start off tiny just like all babies do. In the video below this story, you’ll see a baby elephant chase a flock of birds away in the most adorable way possible!

The video was shot near Berg en Dal in the Kruger National Park in South Africa. The little elephant appears to be having the time of his life as he chases his new bird friends away!

There really is nothing cuter than seeing a young creature experience the world for the first time. Regardless of the species, babies all have one thing in common: they are little creatures who are just experiencing everything for the first time in their lives. The entire world is overwhelming to them, and they literally take baby steps to try and figure things out.

When watching the video below, it almost seems like the elephant does not realize that he is an elephant and may think he is a bird just like the flock! He likely wishes he could fly away with them, not realizing that he does not have wings! We wish we could continue to watch him as he grows into the enormous elephant that he one day will be!

Check out the adorable video of the elephant chasing the birds below, and SHARE this story so your friends and family can see this as well!
