Baby Baylor Getting a Bath

Most people have never given a 4 month old baby elephant a bath. The elephant team gives baby Baylor and all of the elephants a bath everyday! Baylor can be more challenging to bathe than the other elephants. He gets extremely excited and loves to run and play in the water/tub. Baylor seems to think the bubbles from the soap are fun to play with as his keepers try to scrub him. Next time you visit the zoo, stop by the barn windows in the morning and there is a good chance of watching the Elephant team give Baylor or another member of his elephant family a bath.

I saw the birth on TV. Baylor is so precious!!! I live in Waco (where Baylor University is), so of course I love the name. This video has me shrieking "oohs", "awws", and just plain tickled to see this lovely baby having fun. There are still good, pure beautiful things on this earth. Baylor is surely one of those lovely things.

This has to be the cutest sight I have ever seen.  Thank you so much for sharing it. And thank you, too, for continuing to provide absolute proof that elephants do indeed thrive in zoos!
