Various viral videos featuring elephants

Recently, an elephant was observed paying tribute to its deceased mahout at his funeral on a moving occasion. The clip received a lot of love and applause from netizens. In another video, a tusker was seen effectively utilising a hand pump to take out water and drink it. The funny sight was captured in a school near West Bengal's Alipurduar area and then shared on Twitter. The animal appears in the 30-second footage inside the school grounds. As the video progresses, the elephant can be seen pushing the hand pump's handle and drinking the water that comes out of it with his trunk. Since then, the elephant has been seen repeating his duty.
