What could go wrong when you foster a baby elephant and let it wander through your house? Nothing, right? Wrong. A woman in South Africa (she is the head of a nearby animal sanctuary) decided to personally help foster one of the baby elephants that was being brought to her sanctuary, and the footage of her having the elephant in her house is a hilarious disaster.
The elephant is acting like all elephants do (which we learned today that elephants are basically large, smarter dogs with trunks), curiously exploring everything and not having a care in the world. One of the best moments is the elephant is playing with some expensive-looking china, and she says in an anxious voice, "This is not a good place for an elephant!" No kidding, Sherlock! We can't look away from this hilarious train wreck, and honestly whenever our dog gets into something he's not supposed to, now we can sit back comfortably and say, "Well, at least he's not an elephant".
Aaaaaaaaand the destruction begins. You would think that maybe, just maybe, you would move all the expensive plates and things away from the baby elephant, but that would be just us. To be fair, it must be pretty hard to "elephant-proof" a house.
If we were an elephant we would be curious as heck! Especially if there were so many things to explore and play with, like in rich white lady's house in South Africa. White plates? Does it break if we do this? What's this shiny thing? Can we put it in our mouths?
