They say elephants always behave like children. When you watch this video, it seems that it is true. Even though they are big animals to look at, the way they break and eat pumpkins shows their childishness.
The video has garnered more than two lakh likes and reactions on Facebook.
As the New York Post reports, other animals at the zoo, including lions, are also given pumpkin for enrichment purposes. Three pumpkins reportedly weighed 347 pounds (157.3 kg), 364 pounds (165.1 kg), and 576 pounds (261.2 kg).
