Elephants: A Bath and a Pedicure 

They are so precious. Give them lots and lots of hugs and kisses for me. Thank you. lynn

0:53 Elephant: "My usual pedicure please."

This is what I have been saying a man has the privilege to protect and this video clip is a beautiful thing. Thank you Sedgwick County Zoo for your dedicated work to our majestic giants.

That was so cute seeing it trying to put it's foot up

First horse cleaning videos and now I'm on elephants. Guess I'm learning how to bathe and groom various animals today.

Today, I watched: First, cow hoofing, Second, horse hoofing, Now, elephant hoofing, Still....no chance of studying tonight!!!!😤😭😤😇😭😤

Than elephant LOVED the hosedown! It was like looking at an enormous puppy

I would be smiling ear to ear getting to do this. They look like they're miserable. Thank you for taking care of them but have fun.

@5:12 the elephant getting the shower is too cute! Shes loving every minute of that! I love elephants, I rode on the back of one when i was about 7yrs old, but I really REALLY want to meet one now that I appreciate how special, intelligent & sweet they are 😁❤🐘

How clean elephant are maintained great work ! I have never seen so clean foot of elephant.

Wonderful to see these majestic animals being so well treated❤️

So sweet i loved how the elephant laid down for his bath aaaaw 💓

Thank you dear angle for the caring Elipent 🙏😘

They keep throwing treats at the elephants and the elephants couldn't care less 😂😂

5:46 every guy that watches this knows how great that feels for the elephant. I’m jealous...

Boy, does the one on the right love to shower!!! Adorable!!!!!!

This is just like us stood under a hot shower after a long day. So sweet to see

They are incredible animals!😍

Amazing work Keepers!

Feel so nice to be a human being after watchin this. Great Job Guys🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Such a majestic creature.

This elephant is having a lovely spa day 😂

Finally I see a huge animal in a cage but actually being taken care of and spoiled lol so refreshing!! This is how all of them should be treated!!!

When I grow up, i wanna be a professional elephant groomer 🤗

A hose-down, fresh fruit and pedicure? These elephants are in....elephant heaven.

They are so beautiful ❤️🐘

I wonder if the elephant is perplexed by the humans ability to constantly shoot water from their “trunk”

That Elephant was telling her oh yeah.....right there..

It would be nice if the keepers showed a bit of affection for their beautiful elephants

Elephants are intelligent 🧠 and have brilliant memory

Cute elephants 🐘 😍

Sad to see these creatures locked up like this

Pretty smart. Too bad they can't be in a pool. Elephants really dont mind water.

And people say zoo life is cruelty. These elephants looked super happy.

That high pressure hose would hurt if you were a human, but to elephant it probably feels like being in the shower lol.

I love it! These elephants are so happy.

Incredible animal.good job appreciate.

Amo elefantes 😍😍😍🐘🐘🐘❤assim como amo o meu PAIS 🇧🇷🇧🇷❤❤

Simple, this elephant is in captivity. No two way about it.

Si estas personas cuidan a estos gigantes porque usan esos garfios que los lastiman ... me da la impresión que no disfrutan su trabajo solo observen cómo lo hace !!! Sin ningun entusiasmo !!! Un trabajo como cualquier otro!!! Deben estar orgullosas de poder convivir con estos seres tan especiales y únicos.

How obedient. How happily he put his foot there

Pressure washing elephants seems to be a kind of fun job. :)

Is the forced of the water coming out to harsh even if they do have thick skin? I mean like the bottom of our feet have thick skin too but we can still feel shit.

I wish my shower had that water pressure

Their Amazing Animals 💓

Elephants may be huge but are so adorable lol I just wish they wasn't in a cage

This is good for the animals and they probably get let out side if you see in the back ground you can see a door leading somewhere and that probably outside so the animals can chill and the animals are taken care of pretty well They look well and they look happy

Beautiful workers

They have to make the habitat bigger then,so the elephants can have enough space to walk around in.

So that's what the bottom of an elephant's foot looks like.

that's incredible animal

Omg I love them😍😍😍😍

What do they put on the soles of their feet?

QUE BELLOS Y NOBLES SON LOS ELEFANTES !!!

This is their favorite part of the day

Que hermosos 😍😍😍

So Awesome 💓

Yumm! Shredded carrot for the soup!

thanks for the nice video

Does the stick used to maneuver the elephant cause any harm. These are wonderful magnificent animals and everything should be done to make their lives better

I think the first big guy/girl 🐘 is a bit ticklish 🙄.. And I like how the cages ( I prefer holding area ) is made so the staff can get out " just in case " . 😁🐘🐘💕💕🐘🐘💕💕🐘🐘💕💕🐘🐘💕💕 and the second 🐘💕one is enjoying him /her self VERY much 😁 .

Laddies My trunk needs washing too!

Nice camera for those years

So cute😍😍😍😇

Perfekte Elefanten Pflege

What are they doing to their nails???? What are they taking off exactly????

I want that same treatment when I go to the zoo

Lovely 😊

Elephant spa. Elephants seem to appreciate spa as much as humans.

I love elephants

Woow... Big elephant

i like this job god bless you

Muncă grea! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍

Zoos are a great place for elephants and other animals. All of them in AZA facilities are so happy living there. Zoos and aquariums are great places for the public to contact nature and teach us the importance of protecting the earth. Lots of animal rights activists failed to recognize that good institutions did lots of great things for animals, such as providing medical care, enough food, and breeding program. When they say “All people using bullhooks are bad.” And “Every place that uses bullhooks are bad. It makes no sense! I know some people use it abusingly but saying all people abuse it is nonsense! That's saying when one person uses a gun the wrong way, EVERYBODY uses it the wrong way! Think people! Andthat saying lives are cut short in captivity is WRONG! There is SCIENTIFIC PROOF tht lives are LONGER in captivity. Lots of self claimed animal rights people only demonize those organizations, and I think it is very unfair for people working there. Lots of people working there has devoted themselves, and they do love their animals. Wild animals will die if they are sick, because no one will provide them medical care. And in lean times, lots of animals will die from dehydration and starvation. Animal rights activists failed to recognize nature is not a place free of violence. The killing in the wild is extremely excruciating for the prey. And if you had learned animal behavior, you will know some animals will kill to eliminate competition or out of hatred for other species. Elephants and African Buffaloes will kill lion cubs, because they hate them. Male lions and male tigers will kill Cubs they don't know in order to mate with females sooner. Most animals are definitely not free in the wild. They have territories, and they are confined to that place because their neighbors will fight with them if they move out. Lots of the fights are very violent and even bloody, such as the fight between large predators. Most animal rights activists portray the wild as a peaceful paradise. That is the biggest lie on earth. The jungle law will not sympathies animals in trouble. The weaker one will be bullied or even killed in the fight for survival. And nature is not free of human influence at all. Most wild places are constantly under the threat of human activities. Lots of endangered species were ruthlessly killed by poachers. Wild animals are constantly killed by local villagers in developing countries. Not only due to poaching, but also because of conflicts with humans. Herbivores such as elephants were killed because they eat and stampede crops, while predators were killed because they kill livestock and even humans. Living in the wild is not happy or safe at all. And it is very hard to survive under those threats. The theory of animal rights groups are not based on science. They are not true conservationists at all. They only exaggerate the darker side, but they failed to realize wild place is no better than the places they demonize. The true conservationists will stress the importance of protecting nature, habitat, and saving the endangered species. The efforts of animal rights activists are not on those important things to save nature. Lots of zoos actually have bred lots of endangered species, such as Asian elephants, tigers, pandas, California Condors, etc. Scientifically speaking, those organizations are helping the future of animals. The animal rights activists can achieve none of that. They keep talking but they did nothing to save nature. They tell the people who work their hardest to get a job with animals to “Go to hell.” And “Lack of education.” It is a great pity that animal rights activists are demonizing institutions that not only truly help animals, and conducting research that deepen our understanding of animals and nature. Those institutions has not only entertained the public, but educated us getting more knowledge of nature and remind us the importance to value so many important things. Wake up, don't believe in fake science or illogical allegations.

Wow they are trained

Elephants are so adorable!!!! P.S What is that annoying whining or wooing sound throughout the video?

Don’t forget to wash behind your ears, kids. Especially if you’re an elephant

Very intelligent

Why scraping the entire bottom?

BRO KEEP THE CAMRA IN A SPOTT

What is she scraping off

If they just need to take off the old growth, at least to start, why not use a power sander?

Wait, is that what the bottom of an elephant's foot looks like?

Vocês Não estão afinando de mais os pés dos elefantes? Pode chegar na carne e não tem proteção contra as baterias ao pisar na lama.

Los lastiman?

Se nota que los cuidan bien

Who's humming????

You could probably sell those foot shavings in China for $6k an ounce.

wife watched this said shes going to spray me down and scrub with bass broom

Só isso de água? Esse elefante merecia uma piscina!!

Good job

here I was thinking that was some sort of blister then she starts scraping it I was like 😯

Secondo voi sono felici così loro?

Why they are in jail ,??

Nails done hair done

Why are they in prison what did they do?

*_do not anger the most giant of land beasts_*

My heart melted at 5:14. That elephant is loving that bath! it saddens me that they likely don't have room to roam, however. Are they using bullhooks?

Is that a child crying in the background or the elephant making noise

Tanks :D
