The girl dances by moving her body left and right. The gentle giant tries to mimic her by moving its head and ears. First, the elephant attentively observed her dance steps, and then it imitated her movement.
Elephants not just entertain us with their videos, sometimes, they motivate and inspire us as well. A clip was tweeted recently in which a baby elephant was learning to walk but it was falling down. So, its mother picked it up with her trunk and helped it in walking with a very slight support.

Before you start running, you must learn to walk. Before you learn to walk, you must learn to stand. Sustained progress is always slow. pic.twitter.com/iOQhvdbcr8
