00:00Back at the Elephant Hospital, the in-patients have a spring in their step.

00:16Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.

00:20Because there's nothing they enjoy more than to head to one of the ponds for a bit of hydrotherapy.

00:30Incredible.

00:37Back at the other one, it's just joy, unbridled joy.

00:44Look at that, one's climbing on the back of the other one.

00:51These guys are a bonded family.

01:00They love each other.

01:01They're always touching and squeaking to each other.

01:04And you can sense it, it's like a family holiday.

01:06It's like, you know, when you go with your brother, sister, your mum and dad to the beach.

01:10It's great.

01:24Elephants are the biggest land mammal on Earth.

01:26So they're like three and a half tons.

01:27That's a lot of weight and pressure on your joints all day.

01:29In the water, it's like zero gravity.

01:39The elephant's trunk is one of the most amazing tools in the animal kingdom.

01:42It can even be used as a snorkel, which allows them to breed when fully submerged on the water.

01:46That allows them to cross rivers, to migrate huge distances and open up new territories.

01:51It's a fantastic adaptation.

02:00Baby rolling over, I'm not going to try and be scientific about it.

02:02It's just pure, unadulterated joy.

02:05And it's amazing to see.

02:21Why?

02:22The town of Earth is another.

02:23As an artist.

02:24Mrs.
