This is a touching video taken in an animal sanctuary in Thailand in which it looks like (to the extent that one can read an animal’s intentions) a baby elephant thought that the trainer who had rescued her just a year earlier and to whom she had grown close was drowning in a river and so swam out to rescue him
Good for her. Reminds me of Labradors who get anxious the moment one of their people get in the water.
I did not mean to imply she is anywhere as witless as the average Lab.
