Can you do this with your upper lip? This elephant was trying to get a snack from a person sitting on an elephant right behind it. I think the charm worked and this opportunist received a treat. I know I wouldn’t have been able to resist such a cute request.

I think this is the first time I’ve ever really noticed the resemblance between elephants and walruses. Extemely cute!
I love seeing that animals have so much character. I didn’t notice the walrus connection until you mentioned it, but I see it.
That’s a handy ability, isn’t it!
It paid off for him.
Haha, that’s so cute!
I agree Robyn…I love animals and how they get us to do things for them.
Adorable!! I would have given up my whole bag of treats to that cutie!
It was fun feeding the elephants the treats…their trunks feel odd and they tickled my hand.
I know I wouldn’t have resisted. 🙂
How could you…not only is he cute but clever. An irresistible combination.
Love it! They are so clever.
They really are…many people don’t give animals enough credit. I know my dog and cat have me completely trained.
That’s it – no more cute elephant pictures otherwise I’m going to have to adopt one and my dogs will be very unhappy. And, think how guilty you’ll feel. LOL
Lynn 😀
How many dogs do you have…I bet all of them would get along. If the dogs get tired, the elephant can carry them. That’s a handy friend to have.
Nature rocks! Great pic!
I agree Hook!
Lovely one and great photograph. Thank you dear TBM, with my love, nia
Thanks Nia!
He’s smart and adorable!! 🙂
He’s smarter than most people I know 🙂
How very cute:)
I wanted to take him home.
Cute and irresistible! That’s what you call “flexibility.”
Yes! And what a way to win over a crowd with treats.
Powerful tusks! Looks very nice. 🙂
I think he has such a sweet face. Thanks Myra.
🙂 Little charmer! I’ll have to practice some more before I’ll be able to do that, I think…
Keep me updated on your progress 🙂
Reminds me of my little grandson who can turn on the charm when he needs something 😉
I bet he is pretty darn cute!
YES and he knows it 🙂
