Watch an adorable baby elephant playfully chase a flock of swallows in Kruger National Park in South Africa

It must be the week for cute baby elephant video’s! Just yesterday we posted a story of a brave little baby elephant charging a car to protect his mom. Today we found a video of a sweet little elephant playing and chasing a flock of birds.

The video was originally posted by Latest Sightings – Kruger. They saw the UNILAD post and commented about the video.

“This is one of our most loved videos! We actually posted this in response to Cecil the lion that was poached. Everyone was so upset, we wanted to share a bit of happiness. Hope you all enjoy this baby elephant video.” – Latest Sightings – Kruger

“So great to see our video again!! I shot this in January 2015 while visiting Kruger Park with my friend from college! She was taking photos as I was filming video! It was such a magic sighting – we watched this herd of elephants for about 30 minutes – all alone with them on the road, they were quietly eating on either side of the road and crossing in front of us! This little one just popped out of the bushes and had the best time playing with the swallows.” – Susan Webb
