A lesson for us all, said Lek Chailert, the Thai actor said, sharing the video.
We have heard numerous things about elephants -- that they are gentle giants, that they can be a human's best friend and that they are terrific listeners. When it comes to listening, it's not their huge ears that help much but their feet that pick the rumblings and vibrations from over and sometimes under the ground. Earlier, this week, Lek Chailert, founder of the Elephant Nature Park and the Save Elephant Foundation, shared a video on Instagram of three elephants at the Elephant Nature Park. On a bright sunny day, the food is lying on the ground and one of the three elephants is eating it. However, Chana, an elephant, it appears, doesn't want to leave Ploy Thong, her adopted nanny, behind. Ploy Thong is "blind in both eyes", the video description said. In the video, Chana is seen helping Thong trace the food on the ground by walking backwards, facing her friend. Thong followed perhaps the sound of Chana's feet to sense where the food was. In her post, Lek, who is also the founder of the Elephant Nature Park, drew people's attention to Chana's kind gesture as she led her nanny towards the food. "Look how Chana leads Ploy Thong, her adopted nanny, who is both eyes blind, toward food," she wrote, adding that seeing them take care of each other every day she discovered the beautiful side of the elephant. "A lesson for us all," she concluded.More Related News
