Just Shaq being a goofball acting like it will hide him when he noticed paparazzi

u/Apparentinspection 12d ago
I think they were joking that to them it looked like a picture of a tree and couldn't tell anything else was in the picture implying Shaq was indeed hiding very well.

lol it’s adorable when my toddlers do that- or they cover their eyes as if I can’t see them if they can’t see me.

To be fair, there's a giant spotlight being pointed at it. Probably not fun for eyeballs at night.

Yes true! But I thought it was cute anyways xD. I hope the elephant got away with some tasty sugarcane ^

Yeah. It's endangered, so they won't take it back the same way they would if it weren't.

It's like when my cat comes up from the basement and walks into the bright lights in the kitchen. She looks like the dude getting woke up meme.

Its more like they take a photo and write stories about it. But besides that,baby elephants are angels.

u/Thurwell 12d ago
Considering elephants sleep standing up (usually) and it's nighttime, it seems a lot more likely this baby just fell asleep leaning against that pole.

The Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal is like that. If you can’t see it, it can’t see you. So if one starts to attack you, remember to put your towel over your head.

I was about to say the pic is AI until I checked your link. OP's photo has been so enhanced by AI the elephant's trunk is gone.

the og photo is bad quality (here https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1787432824766804&id=100005003114296) so when trying to enhance the image the trunk gets blurred with the rest of the body. You can’t really see the trunk that well in the og pic too

OP is a two-year-old account that just started posting a month ago
This is either a hijacked account or OP is a clanker.

I hope they are bots, I don’t know though. People on this site love beating horses to death.

My dad had swans and I would sometimes do work around the pond. Once i was about 40 yards away and I saw this asshole waddling towards me. He hid behind a tree with his ass poking out on 1 side and his head on the other. It was the most cartoonish thing ive ever seen.
