One can almost imagine Grandma conversing with the mother in elephant language, saying, “No, no, you’re doing it wrong. Watch and learn.

The little one has to do it by itself. You’re not helping; you’re pushing him INTO the mud. Yes, you are. Now, wait…

Please don’t argue with me! I know more than you! Look, he’s climbing out.” With Grandma’s guidance, the embarrassed baby elephant manages to escape the mud hole and resumes walking with the herd.

The question remains: Is this wise rescuer the grandmother from the mother’s side or the formidable mother-in-law? Imagine the banter if it’s the mother-in-law.

She won’t let this incident go quickly, reminding the mother every time they pass a mud hole, “Hey, remember when you almost sent your kid to the bottom?

Where would you be without me?” One can’t help but wonder if elephants roll their eyes when they’re exasperated. This awe-inspiring scene leaves us relieved for the baby elephant’s safety. How about you?
