When he saw his buddy getting his ass kicked, this elephant immediately ran in to protect his human.
In a video, which was picked up last night by a popular Singaporean Facebook page, three Thai men stage a prank to prove the elephant’s loyalty.
“I don’t like his face. Go get him!” the first guy says to another guy who immediately runs to the mahout and starts fighting with him.
The mahout then looks over to his elephant, who is about 30 meters away from him, as the protective pachyderm trumpets and runs in to check on his human.
The video looks like it was shot at a Thai elephant camp and it’s unclear when it was filmed, but it’s always touching to see such a majestic animal showing his love and loyalty to a human.
On the subject of loyal pets, here’s another story of a loyal dog who waited for his owner at Rama V pier every day for almost a month.
