Tourists of a national park in Sri Lanka were amamzed when they witnessed a group of baby elephants playing around with each other on October 31.

The exquisite sight was captured in Kalawewa National Park in Anuradhapura.

A video shows a tusker named 'Maha' engaging in a friendly fight with another calf present on the spot.

Two other unruly baby tuskers can also be seen trying to run away from the herd while an adult chases them. They chase a group of white birds away while running as if wanting them to play along.

Maha the tiny elephant is seen unwilling to give up on the fight that he took up with one of his friends. Both of them can be seen interlocking their trunks to immobilize the other.

Later, Maha can be seen playing in his own company with his trunk by dragging it along the ground. He kneels down to place his long trunk on the ground, and then drags it with himself.

At least 50 other elephants were also located in the same area as Maha.

The visitors were able to meet another tusker named Neela on their way back as darkness fell. She was on her way to drink water from a nearby lake before later retreating to the forest.
