Because elephants are far more kind and considerate that humans, this is a video of a pachyderm deftly picking up and returning a child’s shoe that was dropped inside its enclosure at a Chinese zoo. How about that! It’s given some grass for its trouble, which I’m sure was much

In bad idea news, this is a video of engineer Allen Pan building robotic legs so a snake can experience every snake’s lifelong dream of walking. Should we be giving snakes robotic legs? Of course not, but that’s not going to stop somebody from doing it for the Youtube views,

This is a video from Thai TikTok user thanakrit8181, who stopped to let a herd of elephants cross the road (look at all the babies!), when one of the elephants bringing up the rear stops to wave a thank you. Elephants: they’re more considerate than 99% of drivers on the
