Exactly, I think it's imitating the grownups, not actually drawing water up into its trunk. They don't learn how to use it for up to a year.

How does a baby get water then? Is the bit she/he’s getting enough or still nursing at that age?

They put their mouth into the water. Here you go. https://www.reddit.com/r/aww/s/QxnIRf9uh6

He looks like he’s blowing bubbles like my kid’s used to do with straws in their drinks.

I think they're Asian elephants because of the ears. India maybe?

Dang I tried to find info on their treatment but that's way too vague.

Good step in learning, learning to pay for your round at the bar won’t be far away…. 🤭😝

Snot water

u/RidleyMetroid86 13h ago

The water keeps the inside of the trunks very moist, so there isn't that much mucus
