This baby Elephant thought it was big enough to not suckle any more and attempted to eat some grass while kneeling down. With his trunk still not fully mastered, he had to kneel down and eat the grass. A family member saw this and joined him, but he was very protected about his new-found skill and his patch of grass. I filmed this just before the big rains came in South Africa's Kruger National Park. I only re-discovered these videos today (8 May 2023) (more to follow) while sifting through previous videos I took while waiting for the internet service to come back on due to load-shedding here in South Africa. Luckily, I have an inverter to keep the computer on and one does not need any internet to go through previous downloaded footage on one's computer. A great video showing their inter-action and just as humans, being cocky, but it caused him to land on his backside during the inter action. Enjoy.
