Navann, you are a superstar! Thank you, Mindy for sending in this excellent video. To keep up with Navann and all the elephants at Elephant Nature Park, visit Save Elephant Foundation.

he’s still trying to figure out how to play!
WOW Navann IS a superstar!!! YOU GO Navann !!!
(It might not hurt, for the Park to fit him, with a nice grey jockstrap tho ….8-O)
HA! Can you believe that boy elephant privates are prehensile? They can use their junk to prop themselves up, swat at flies and scratch their own stomach! This is something I remember learning a long time ago, but relearned it here: http://scienceblogs.com/notrocketscience/2009/11/07/south-african-wildlife-wait-thats-not-a-trunk/.
Now, Fird, I know it’s pearl clutching business, this, but it’s also kinda fascinating, right?
*Gasp!!!!!…*clutches pearls and faints*
*grabs Emmylee’s pearls from her*
I’m sorry, but who thought of studying this? Someone who was jealous?
I’m just relieved that human males can’t do any of those things. BECAUSE YOU KNOW THEY’D DO THEM ALL THE TIME, IN PUBLIC.
Ohhh y’all I needed this hearty laugh this morning! Thank you for being yourselves
gotta give Alice props, on THAT aspect!!!
Doesn’t stop them from trying.
Erm, having raised a colt, I can vouch that my boy horse used his parts for similar things…..except propping himself up. Even now that he’s no longer a stallion, he STILL does it. How do you ‘splain to a kid what the cute horsey is doing? Anybody? ’cause it’s been 18 years, he still does it, and I still don’t know what to do or say when kids catch him at it. I usually melt into the shadows and tee-hee-hee myself to oblivion! The eye’s on the kids are priceless. Kinda like baby rhino in the http://cuteoverload.com/2012/11/08/da-da-da/ post.

He’s so delightfully wobbly!
*YAY* for being delightfully wobbly !!!
Just an aside, but Mom looks like she’s doing fine. Her injuries don’t seem to be stopping her from moving around and being a good mother.
I was thinking the same thing! So glad she seems to be doing OK.
