Paul Dunphy Esquire 🏳️🌈Just a baby elephant on a beach for the very first time, adding some loveliness to your timeliness today. 😊 #elephantlove #weekendmood #boost #tooting
Louise Locock@PaulDunphyEsquire I so love all the #wildlife photos mastodon is giving me. I'm here for the serious stuff too, around #research, #NHS, #Politics etc, but to have it leavened with so much beauty is very calming.
@ProfLouiseL agreed very calming timeline especially with the content warning feature 👌🤸♂️

Which country is this lovely little fella in?
Which country is this lovely little fella in?
@mafeesh America I think....
@PaulDunphyEsquire
That country well known for its native elephants? 😜
Looking at the sky/sea/sand and that fact that it's a baby Asian, I was thinking Thailand, possibly Sri Lanka. I'd hate to think this gorgeous little creature had been dragged from its home to the US.
Thanks for sharing such wonderful pics though, a real day-brightener.
James Henstridge@mafeesh @PaulDunphyEsquire This person seems to be the source of the images, and says they were taken in Phuket, Thailand: https://www.phuket101.net/baby-elephant-playing-on-the-beach/
▷ Baby Elephant on a Phuket Beach: The real story behind the photos - PHUKET 101
The real story behind it (and how I became anonymously famous) ” Stop everything and look at this baby elephant’s first time on the beach” How many times did you see such a catchline? 4 things you should know about these photos: NO, it’s not the first time he sees the sea! The baby elephant...
Thanks James,
I thought I recognised the coastline. Interesting article from the original 'tog about little lucky.
Your post gives me a chance to enjoy the photos all over again :D

SoisFort@PaulDunphyEsquire These are awesome! I thank you for giving me a smile start to this day. Smile plus, these are great visuals for my #foreignlanguage #students to use & describe for #sentiments and #activities - doubly happy…merci.
Carla Martin@PaulDunphyEsquire Aww, very sweet 😊
SVSalon@PaulDunphyEsquire so cute!!! How did it get there?
Josh Caluette@svsalon @PaulDunphyEsquire I'm wondering the same thing. Don't really associate #elephants with beaches.
