Elephant and Dog – Best Friends

At an Elephant Sanctuary, which also happens to be home to stray dogs, a dog and an elephant became inseperable best friends.

My favorite part is what the elephant does when his best buddy gets injured…. so heart-warming!

(when the announcer says “If they can get along, world, why can’t we?” is a little – okay, a lot – corny…..but the rest of it is so sweet I can overlook the cheese-factor of that comment)

    I thought the elephant was going to squish the dog when it’s foot wsa by it’s stomach.

    Okay I’ll admit it – it was cute. Very cute.

    Very cheesy, but oh so cute! I think I’ve seen this before, too. Can’t help but get a little warm fuzzy. :)

    So elephants are herbivores, and dogs are meat – not a contentious relationship. If we had a lion and a dog, in an environment where they didn’t have to struggle for food – could they also be friends?

    In real life opposites can become friends, it’s something to do with there being nothing that either one feels threatened with-opposite interests etc.
