Good morning, writers! 😊
Clearly, animals know more than we think, and think a great deal more than we know."

Did you know? 🌸
In an incident in West Bengal, a 4-year-old girl was travelling with her parents on a two-wheeler. When a herd of elephants suddenly appeared from a forested patch on to the road, her father lost balance, crashing the vehicle. One of the elephants from the group walked towards the toddler and stood still, keeping the girl between its legs till the others from the herd crossed the road. ❤️
Amber was a young British girl on holiday in Phuket back in 2004. She would go for elephant rides on the beach every morning and had grown especially fond of one young jumbo, Ning-Nong. On that fateful day, the elephant was visibly anxious about stepping into the sea. Amber and the mahaut were both confused about this peculiar behaviour of Ning-Nong. But when a tall wave hit the elephant's shoulder, they became alarmed. At this point, Ning-Nong stopped taking commands and ran inland, with Amber on her shoulder. She ran and ran till she found a wall over which Amber could jump to safety. The tsunami soon swept over the entire area but the instinctive elephant saved the little girl. ❤️ #yqbaba#YourQuoteAndMine#WorldEnvironmentDay#yqdnd#voiceofcare#dndteamjustice#voiceofearth#dndnaturesmileswhen
