These clips receive a lot of love and attention from social media users. Now, a video making the rounds on X (formerly known as Twitter) shows a community celebrating an elephant's birthday. Yes, you read that right. Did the elephant cut a cake? No, but there was a special treat arranged for the animal.
The clip, reportedly from Tamil Nadu, shows an elephant adorned with fancy ornaments and garlands. As the people around sing the "Happy Birthday" song, the elephant waves its trunk in joy. In front of the elephant are two large trays filled with fruits and vegetables, including grapes, watermelons, pomegranates, carrots, and more. The elephant uses its trunk to lift and enjoy these treats while the crowd cheers and claps. The text attached to the viral video reads, "In India, they celebrate their elephant's birthday."
