- Day 361 of 400: Impodimo Safari Lodge...spinning around the world. We were lounging around the pool at our lodge and a herd of elephant came up to drink from the swimming pool. Very Cool...
I love how very respectful you are towards the elephants in their presence. I wish more people who come to see animals in their natural habitat have that same courtesy as you guys. Plus Africa has gotta be incredible to see.
Those people are very lucky ! What a privilege to be there !!
Thank you for not startling them or speak loudly to irritate them. That was nice that you whispered showing some respect. The elephants normally love to jump in the water and roll over. But, they are so smart they know this place belongs to someone with instinct, and the way they behave is like, hey this is someone else's place and just drink a little and not make a mess. How intelligent.
That was unbridled fear lol..
@Anna K You don't get it. It's a show of respect to whisper. It has nothing to do with elephants having big ears or how sensitive they are to hearing.
No sudden movements or noises. Yes they don't mind the wildlife callings but a noise they find unfamiliar they see as a threat.

Ja, ja, ja. you are right. They are really smart and " politically correct ", more than some humans peoples !!!
Who knew Elephants had such excellent pool manners. No running, pushing or shoving. Everyone politely waiting their turn. Though they could have hogged the whole pool they thoughtfully only used a small section and were careful to keep splashing to discreet minimum. They would be the ideal non-chlorinated pool party guests ...............until you got the water bill.
Tmarie2u great comment lol
Water is pretty cheap, you can't afford a couple bucks?
Lolz
Thanks so much for producing this video. It made my day. Such beautiful creatures.
They are magnificent.
Save the elephants by NOT buying ivory items.
How hard can it be??
tell 1.3 billion Chinese people that!
That’s on asian people. They literally keep the market up for it. Western world basically doesn’t care for that shit.
Its not just ornaments it is also used in healing medicines. That's why its so difficult to trace the origin of source it gets shipped too.
Also the sellers of the medicines don't like to be identified either. A few free lance journalists have felt.the wrath from it.
Save all the animals that certain terrible human want to exploit. Don't buy anything from China. Beware of what you buy from Africa. Leave the wild animals alone. We are all much better off with them being free in their natural setting. Seeing videos of wild animals in their natural habitat is enough for me.
Every time I see a video of elephants drinking from the pool I'm struck by what perfect guests they always are. No trumpeting, no shoving, no intimidating, no stepping on the boards and breaking them to bits, no rampaging through the huts and destroying everything. Nope. Perfect guests. And that is one of the deadliest animals on the planet...
Check out the video of the bull elephant that came to lunch at the Mana Pool camp. They are not always "perfect guests".
I love it when elephants drink out of swimming pools!
These elephants have excellent pool etiquette.
So,SO glad the water is potable! what a wonderful clip!
Hope theres no chlorine in the pool..
Have you seen the water dear elephants are used to drinking?! Chlorine would be like a freshener😔
If that happened to me while I was chillin and enjoying my place, i would probably cry a bucket. I've always wanted to witness Elephants in their own natural habitat doing whatever it is they do. And its such a beautiful moment to witness these wonderful gentle creatures enjoying their water :)) this is why I really want to go on a Safari lodge and just be one with nature.
In an animal's world - everything is free! All they have to do is go and get it! Just to see the joy on people's faces when just a drink is being taken says it all! :-)
Not true, in animal world it is either free or might cost your life.
Elizabeth Czepiel Complexities of the world were created by chutzpah humans.
its the strongest animal on earth he can get it without permission :D
In the animal world the earth has custody of all living beings and takes care of us. Western mind things they own the earth an only money talks.
What a beautiful video - thank you for sharing it.
I have a feeling they've been drinking there before.
Thank you for the wonderful upload!
The elephants seem respectful.
Great video :) its great to finally see educated ppl/ tourist around wild animals :))
One of my favorite animals - they're beautiful and so graceful. Thanks for this awesome video!
I love elephants. 💜🧡💛💚💙🐘🐘🐘🐘
She is beautiful
Thank you for sharing. Magnificent creatures.
This is one of the things on my bucket list I would love to see an elephant in their habitat like this
I swear we dont deserve these beautiful gentle giants😭😭
Not exactly gentle. Elephants in a zoo are trained to interact with humans, but in the wild, they can charge anyone that pisses them off. I’ve seen videos where wild elephants have charged safari vehicles and flipped over cars and trucks. They are very strong and powerful.
So beautiful!!! This is the way wildlife should eb observed, in their natural habitat not in cages or even enclosures!!!! Free!!! I love elephants, such gentle giants unless one threatens one of them then you get not only the rage of the one you get the whole heard of females and young bucks!!!
That’s amazing 😍 awwwwww look at the baby elephant 🥰♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Thankyou for sharing this amazing video 🌺
I like elephants and most other animals a whole lot more than I like most humans.
Now that's a lovely video. So cool so obedient....they are just to themselves. People who have closely seen them are so lucky. God wonderful creatures.
Thanks from Canada 🇨🇦For sharing your Amazing video with us all. I love Elephants. They truly Are amazing animals. Their hearts their souls and are beautiful animals. I just wish ppl would Stop poaching these amazing animals for tusks. I would never ever purchase any Ivory. NEVER. PLEASE ppl do NOT buy anything that's Ivory. Put them poachers out of business!!You both are so lucky to have been that close to watch themDrink the water out of your or the pool you were planning on swimming in. How did you both stay so calm ???? I hope if I were ever in that situation I could stay as calmAs you both did. And just enjoy watching. Baby elephants are so adorable. AgainThanks for posting your video 👍🏼🇨🇦
What a beautiful animal.
I agree with you. I love elephants.
Gentle Giants. 👍🏼
Je regarde cette vidéo avec é normément de plaisir, je sent le bonheur de ce couple, cet amour qu’ils ressentent. en regardant cette scène 🌎🌿❤️
Thank you ever so much for sharing your fascinating elephant experience. They're precious gifts from God.
Very polite elephants.
A nice and impressive video!
I find it so facinating that people can't seem to be quiet even if their lives are on the line. They could make all the comments in the world AFTER the ellies left. But no, humans. The girl said "this is our pool what's going on?" You're in THEIR AFRICA is what's going on!
Elephants are the best! !!!
That's cleanest water they've had probably EVER. Poor ELEPHANTS, they need protection from poachers/killers. Gov't should protect them from thugs😞
Wow, they brought the whole herd with them.
This place makes their money providing guest an upclose look at elephants in the neighborhood. When you arrive you are told that you may get a visit from an elephant wanting a drink of your pool. You are told to not make sharp movements or loud noises. The pools are kept up in a way that elephants who regularly visit them will not be made it.
That's why you don't pee in the pool!!
THANKS FOR SHARING THIS..
Very lucky look close up. From Thailand.
Shhhhh Elephants scan here low frequency hums miles away that are undetectable to human ears. The Whispering is so cute. Very nice video.
I would absolutely love to be there watching the elephants as I have always wanted to do . UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL !
Look the respect & smartness of elephant they not came in to swiming pool @ not waste to water
That is so cute baby .
This is a great video. The coule here is showing due respect to the elephants by talking in a low tone. I like that.
Wow! Thank you for sharing!
Such wonderful animals … thanks für sharing 🤗🙏
Such a beautiful and intelligent creature on the earth so much civilized .....looks like a bunch of pool party creature
Beautiful location made even more beautiful by the elephants! 💕 I also enjoyed how you interacted with each other and the elephants.
Amazing animals, thank you 💚💚💚💚
Hoping there was no chlorine. How magnificent. Wow. :-)
Hope that pool doesn’t have chlorine! I love the video thanks ❤️
It does its lightly chlorinated, not a big issue for human much more for an elephant.
That's so beautiful!!
I don't know about you, but pool water just doesn't quench my thirst! ;-D
Wow! Proud of them and proud of you!
This is soo brilliant😀 Lucky people !💕
That is VERY cool.
This is amazing!
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL
Belle vidéo

Death sentence for anyone who kills an Elephant.
What a beautiful sight , would love to go there one day and experience such a moment
❤️😁i love it!!
Beautiful. And the dude is not bad either. ; )
Ewe...
QUE LINDOS AMO A LOS ELEFANTITOS, SON TODOS LINDOS, Y GIGANTES ,...
BEAUTIFUL🐘🐘🐘
I love how they yield to the newer arrivals. If another herd showed up, the ones we see now would all step aside or leave
What a moment in time😮😀😁
Thank you for sharing. Inspires me to get there sooner than later.
Here's my question. When an elephant is sucking water into its trunk, how does he know when to stop? How far up does the water go? Yeah, yeah, yaaah, I know this is a weird line of thought but I always think about this question. Can an elephant sense the progression of the water as he draws it up into his trunk? I'm gonna say, YES. OK, that aside, the elephant is an very very strange lifeform. It can't run. It is the biggest land animal. It has ears the size of a satellite dish. Its nose is up to six feet long. It is as big as a cabin. It is a tranquil vegetarian. It is an delight.
That's so cool
Sweet couple !
Amazing
Hope the pool wasn't heavily chlorinated. Chlorine is not good for elephants to drink.
Sorry for my french ..but fcuking amazing to have been there to see that ,would have made my holiday instantly
Lawd it’s the whole family 🤣
So cute
How adorable are they?
Dry or on the rocks your pool cocktail ? Dry please.....
thanks so much. 😊😊😊😊😊
Did the pool have chlorine in it? If so, I hope it doesn't harm the elephants? It was a thrill for you to have them visit you!
this is where I will be staying next year on vacation.
Wow, not too many people in the world will ever experience this, *EVER* What I wouldn't give to have been there, to see this!!!
This must be real clean water for them...
Thats not wild elepanth right? Some of them wearing neckless. Correct me if i am wrong, but still awsome to be so close with that massive creature. Sorry about my broken english
I wanna know how your stay was for the entire trip?
There beautiful and thirsty
aren't the pool water mixed with caporit and other chemicals?
i wonder if the water is filtered to keep clean or they use.baking soda. which shouldn't be a problem for elephants
Elephant : Oooh god, fresh water !
Does that water have chlorine in it? If so, how does that affect the elephants?
Esa agua, si pueden tomarla?...no tiene cloro?
Whats that thing hanging from the lead Elephant's neck?
Their here !
God bless
Chlorine does no damage to animals. My cats and dogs drink it every day. In fact it is very good to get rid of parisites
Amo a vida animal
E maravilhoso obrigado senhor por me proposionar coisas tao lindas
Is the water of this pool drinkable for these elephants ?
