Meet Bani, a baby elephant whose life took a dramatic turn at just 9 months old when she was struck by a train, leaving her injured and paralysed.
Recently, Wildlife SOS shared a heartwarming video capturing Bani’s joyful playfulness, and it quite literally is the cutest sight on the Internet.
The caption states, “This pool provides Bani with a refreshing respite from the heat and doubles as a fun enrichment, allowing her to roll around in the water and use her trunk to squirt water on herself and those nearby.
Additionally, the muddy bath forms a protective layer on her skin, shielding her from the sun’s rays, helping to cool her body temperature, and protecting her from insect bites.”
According to Wildlife SOS’s blog, Bani was a victim of a train collision in Uttarakhand and was left injured and paralysed.
The Uttarakhand Forest Department provided initial aid before Wildlife SOS intervened, helping Bani on her journey to recovery.
