Elephants are well known for their strong kinship and maternal ties, especially when it comes to protecting their young offspring.There are several videos on the internet that exhibit the extraordinary abilities of elephants. Additionally, the video becomes more enjoyable to watch if it includes innocent baby elephants.
A video winning hearts on the internet shows how this is true even for elephants. IAS officer Supriya Sahu, also Tamil Nadu’s Additional Chief Secretary of Environment, Climate Change, and Forests, shared a video of a herd of elephants crossing a narrow road going through the forest area.
While sharing this photo, Sahu wrote, “The most fascinating photo of an elephant family making a protection ring with their trunks around their precious baby to protect her as they are approached by a vehicle.

In the clip, an elephant mama is seen helping her calf cross the road. The mother towers over her child as they stand at one end of the road. The child squirms around the mother elephant’s legs and gets as close as possible before embarking on the short journey to the other side of the road.
The big elephant slowly crosses the road as it seems to be teaching her child how to cross. They finally reach the end of the road safely when a glimpse of a car gets caught in the video, hence explaining the little calf’s reason for being so visibly scared.
So far, the video has garnered more than 18.4k views and tons of comments. Netizens filled the section with red heart emojis and comments like ‘Heart touching,’ ‘Beautiful’ and ‘Respect.’ “That too with full escort,” wrote one user and another commented, “Mammal..mummies are having more attachments with its ..infant, cub, calf..of any kind. Daily ..Direct.. Blood Relation.”
