Any parent knows that they have to be careful around young children, as they have a tendency to copy the adults in their life. Now, an adorable video is going viral that shows that human children are not the only ones who like to play copycat!
Suki is a baby elephant who lives at the Chai Lai Orchid sanctuary in Thailand. There, she looks up to the human caretakers who watch out for her every day. The video below this story opens with Suki walking around with her mother as well as a man, who keeps running and sliding on the wet grass. His moves clearly impress Suki, and she decides that she wants to get in on the fun as well!
Suki eventually runs after her human friend and starts sliding around in the grass with him! While Suki is having a blast, her mother does not seem too pleased about her daughter’s antics.
“This is the newest baby who was born here and her name is Suki,” the sanctuary said of the video. “We’re located in Chiang Mai, Thailand. You can support our mission and visit Suki and her family and live with the elephants at our eco-lodge. No humans were harmed in the making of this video.”
It’s impossible to watch this video without smiling, as Suki’s fun-loving attitude is definitely contagious! She makes me want to run outside and have some fun playing around in the rain as well!
