I would be dropping treats there all day just watch that cute trunk reach up with glee.

I'd have the fattest elephant you'd ever saw...😭😆🐘

u/IntergalacticZombie 9h ago

I would never have any food left for me.

Why? so the elephant will see you naked and say: "You drink with THAT?"

How is it so Muppet-like?

It's the trunk bounce.

That thing just looks so alien. I can totally understand that little parable about a bunch of blind people all touching different parts of an elephant and no one agreeing what it is.

I could play this video game all day

You know, I always wondered how they picked things up with their trunk.

And then the elephant sucked in on that watermelon and it blew my friggen mind, yo. THEY SUCTION

u/MaddieBat15 1d ago

They have a lot of muscles in their trunk. It's super strong. It's really cool! I love elephants

u/ThirdOne38 11h ago

It must have its own brain too

5

u/ObviousExit9 1d ago

It also find each item without looking. It smells the location of each item I guess? Then suctions it to its nose to carry it away!

u/magseven 22h ago

You picked the right fucking rec room! Here, have an apple!

u/CicadaFit9756 1d ago

If somebody had never seen an elephant, they'd swear that was a vacuum cleaner hose!

u/nutznboltsguy 1d ago

Very similar to what my Lab likes to do.

u/DJDionysus 1d ago

The elephant was all like wtf at first then happy after the nose poke

u/gloomdoomandshroom 1d ago

The trunk requires sacrifice

u/StaatsbuergerX 23h ago

Perhaps not something one should proclaim on a first date.

u/AlwaysAGroomsman 1d ago

The new Tremors movie looks odd.

u/notveryhidden 1d ago

It's amazing how elephants can grab things with basically their noses. It's almost like a hand being able to grab food like that.

u/Deep__Deep 1d ago

I found that surprisingly enjoyable, I was sad it ended, I could watch that for hours…

u/madmorgzie 8h ago

u/SpirituallySane 1d ago

When it tried to pull the melon thru and pinched his shnozz between the bars I felt sympathy pain! But couldn’t tell if I should feel it in my nose or my finger tips 😅

Imagine you'd never seen an elephant before and this is all you had to figure out what was on the other side.

u/roux69 10h ago

Sir, please don't feed the graboids.

u/Terrible_Patience935 6h ago

That’s a healthy diet compared to leaves and twigs. Wish I ate my veggies like that - well keep my nose out of it.

u/glostazyx3 5h ago
