Thanks Ariya. Yes, it is a beautiful clip of many virtues essential in our lives ,portrayed by this herd of elephants.In all encounters, whether it be animal or human it is the building of trust that endures the relationship.Once trust is built it prevails for a long time.It has always been said that elephants have exceptional memory and here it is abundantly clear that they do remember past encounters very well.

dear Indrajee,
Thanks for your remark which is absolutely true
Majestic vegetarian creatures have a fab memory
They came to grab tasty dinner grown on a tree
Great after having their meal dispersed smoothly

Wild or domesticated elephants, supposed to have a good memory
I wonder the outcome be if hoteliers had chopped the mangoe tree
Their mammoth power & anger enough to ransack the whole resturant
Man & beast in harmony sharing products of nature is the correct thing

Thanks Ariya. Seen it before but lovely to see it again. If the villagers in SL can leave a pathway for the elephants there will be less of the human elephant conflict.

Thanks Ariya for the video clip of Elephants in the Hotel Lobby .
I wonder, if this was a path that the elephants have taken in their annual migration in years gone by, and the hotel was built recently on the migration path of the elephants .
Anyway- these elephants – specially the b ‘nature photographers ‘ to harass these innocent, majestic, yet vulnarable creatures of nature , passing through the hotel lobby .
I only hope that there will not be a Papparazzi of Nature Photographers/ Tourists / Poachers , that will come to harasse these lovely, yet vulnarable creatures of Nature .
A lovely beach off Thailand was just closed to tourists recently to protect it from Human Impact- to let the beach recover .
This is very sad .
Pray that this herd of elephants be safe . We Humans surely know How to Destroy What We Love ….
