| Faa Mai, who just turned 7, at Elephant Nature Park sanctuary in Thailand |
I think we deserve some adorable elephants tonight, don’t you?
Via The Dodo:
Faa Mai, who was born free at ENP to a rescued mom, recently celebrated her 7th birthday on April 16.
The people at ENP prepare a special treat for birthdays. Fresh bananas, fresh watermelon and sugarcane are just a few of the delicious ingredients.
Once prepared, the cake is carried out for the birthday elephant, as people sing.
Faa Mai trotted behind the people carrying her treat. And when it was set down, all her friends and family gathered around.
As anyone with a big family knows, the presence of a delicious cake brings with it a requirement: a willingness to share widely.
