I see Disney's live-action remake of Fantasia is coming right along.

Do you have a clunky and/or awkward land animal? In most cases, submersion in water will improve mobility and speed.
ICrapped
All fun and games Until the elephant hits that glass and all sudden you got a Tsunami.

Looks like me ever since i retired from swim teams post highschool.

Whoopty shit... I can stay in the water for hours by keeping my nose above the surface.

I feel like an elephant when I swim
TheCapedCommentator
Well, no wonder, they are evolutionarily related to whales!
DoYouHaveYourTowel
You’re confused. That’s obviously a whale

This is a zoo in Thailand that forces elephants to swim for entertainment. It is extremely abusive to the elephants and is not cute/funny.

I, too, am a fantastic swimmer when my feet can touch the bottom.
FollowTheBlueFrog
Hehe I love elephants!
DefundIsraelTheGenocidalNation

I think this is so cruel to keep an elephant in the water all the time. Should be on land with grass, a shelter, trees.
menotabronie
This is beautiful, like those pink elephants in Fantasia!

Do not continue the cycle of posting this image. Each time I have seen it, it was said that the elephant was forced to swim to survive. TY.

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/2008/04/elephant-ancestor-evolution-water/ not sure why this one is swimming tho.
BraveGrave
Do you think Elephants are like us humans meaning they don't wanna get in the water but once they do, they have the time of their lives?
AboutasSnappyasaZipper
I think that, like many species including humans, it probably depends on the individual.
HomWapko
I don't know about you, but I love being in the water. I went swimming in Lake Michigan last week, and i probably will tomorrow.

I was going to ask, how do you force it to swim, but then I remembered the Sims games on exist.
legolasmyeggolas
Ah yes, the ol' remove the ladder trick.
Onegermangamer
I can stay underwater for hours too. with a snorkel.
sagejosh0
I can’t, I always end up getting water in it.
kablija
I can't, the pruning makes me feel awful.
doodlebopples0
I used my natural snorkel
FukcTedCruz
Yep, thats why you were banned from all public swimming pools...
ActionJohnnie
My ventral tube. It’s opposite my dorsal portal.
BigBidiza
Or by sticking your nose above the surface.
iamnotabunnywhydoyouask
Until a chubby kid jumps in the pool
CumsInPies
Then hold the breath until the water settles it's easy not hard
ChoccoMilk
Now I’m just imagining a bunch of noses moving on the water like shark fins
