Elephants are known for forming extremely strong attachments, and this isn’t only with their own kind. When they need someone to provide them with the comfort that they need, that help can come from just about anywhere, and they’ll bond instantly with that person. That’s what happened to Naledi the baby elephant when her mother died.
A recent film named “Naledi” speaks of the plight of these elephants and the measures that are being taken to protect them, and the babies that are left orphans from illegal activities. What it goes to show is that Naledi has formed strong emotional bonds with the men in Botswana who have taken her in and shown her the affection that she needs to thrive.
