Animal videos are known to spark joy among humans and a recent clip of a baby elephant gives testimony to it. An adorable video that is now doing rounds of the internet shows the calf taking measures steps as it climbs downstairs to enter a water body. The clip was posted by IFS officer Susanta Nanda who remarked that there was something special about baby elephants and the way they enjoy their baths.

The nearly one-minute-long starts with showing the elephant calf stepping down cautiously as it uses its trunk to measure the depth of each stair. However, once it reaches the edge it plunges into the water to enjoy its bath. The clip ends by showing the calf merrily moving around in the water, rejoicing in the summer heat.
