The Elephants That Came to Dinner
At a five-star lodge in Zambia, a bizarre phenomenon is stumping wildlife experts and delighting tourists. An elephant family, led by a matriarch named Wonky Tusk, is overtaking the lobby. Though elephants can be violent in the wild, here they climb the stairs of Mfuwe Lodge and grace past reception without bumping a chair. Why the paradox? Wildlife cameraman Nathan Pilcher is on a mission to find out. What he discovers may reveal elephants to be far more intelligent than we could’ve imagined. What did you think?

Absolutely beautiful Elephants are one of the most wonderful creatures of nature
They have proven time & time again they have very deep feelings and we should all respect and protect our animals. But I fear for baby Wellington as not all humans will protect him
Thank you for sharing such a insight with your video

They should have held off filming until some unsuspecting guests were checking in when the elephants strolled through the lobby. I would have loved to see the reaction. It was one of the best videos I’ve ever seen, thank you.
