Mother elephant kicks crocodile out of water to protect her baby
Don't mess with this mama elephant...
There's no doubt that the most protective mothers are from the wild.
Rightfully so, they are protecting their young from potentially being harmed by other animals in the wild. We live in a wild world, but that's how life is.
In a video from a safari drive in Sri Lanka, we see a mother elephant go in full-on protective mode.
A mother elephant was visiting a watering hole at a Safari Park in Sri Lanka with her baby.
"When this mother found out there was a crocodile in the small pond she had come to drink from with her calf, she quickly drove it out to ensure her small calf wasn't in danger." (Instagram)
The crocodile was lucky, considering we have seen videos previously of elephants trampling crocodiles to death.
