Young Elephants Enjoy a Playful Mud Bath and End Up in Adorable Rest Together

October 30, 2023 by Pham Hien

These lovely juvenile elephants are exhausted from splashing around in the mud and are slouched ᴄʟᴏsᴇ to each other. Photographer Annie Laing, 64, captured photographs of elephants having fun in Sᴏᴜᴛʜ Aғʀɪᴄᴀ’s Eastern Cape’s Addo Elephant National Park.

In October, Annie, a visitor from Colchester, Sᴏᴜᴛʜ Aғʀɪᴄᴀ, went to the park on a hot day when she was aware that the animals would be looking for water. She was happy to share photos of the playful and cheeky baby elephants because they are well-known for being playful and cheeky.

The elephants’ layer of protection from the sun and insect stings is the mud. When they bathe, they roll around in it or spray themselves with their trunks. It was expected to be 32 degrees, so Annie believed that she would get footage of the elephants in the water. How fortunate she was to be in a neighborhood immediately across from the Addo south gate.

The baby elephants frequently act like toddlers, pushing and shoving each other while playing and generally having a good time. As the temperature rose, more and more elephants entered the lake to cool off.

They covered themselves in dirt because it kept them cooler for a longer period of time. Although all young animals are adorable, newborn elephants top the list for their antics!
