watch it: “Tarra & Bella / A Match Made in Ele-Heaven”Instead of Friday cat video, you get Friday dog-and-elephant video. Don’t worry -- it’s so adorable it’ll make you weep: P.S. If you’re looking for a worthy place to send a coupla bucks, The Elephant Sanctuary could use your help. They’re good people... and I include the elephants in that. support

A bit more information on these two.
(When did Youtube start showing ads before the video begins?)

Now if they could somehow teach the elephant to throw the stick, those two would be truly self-suficient!

Elephants are indeed lovely people- the programmes I've seen (David Attenborough - all hail the king!) that show how close their family groups are and how caring they are of their babies are enough to break your heart. These look like very healthy happy elephants, too.

Must be an agreement between cbs and youtube. Old media strangling the life out of something on the internet is nothing new :(
Dog-elephant friday has raised the bar for cat-friday!

The thing that worries me is that elephants typically live for 50-70 years, while dogs are lucky to reach their 15th birthday. I'm not sure what Tara is going to do when Bella kicks the bucket.

For no good reason, I went to PBS and the Elephant Sanctuary websites yesterday to find out what happened to the two circus elephants that had been reunited after 20 years apart (one of the stories in the PBS program "The Urban Elephant"). The program was originally broadcast in 2000, and the younger elephant died from TB-associated illness in 2006; her buddy grieved, but went on, and eventually became close friends with another elephant (whom she outlived as well).
The people at the Sanctuary let nature take its course, so when Bella dies, I suspect they'll allow Tara to look at and snuffle her body and grieve. Maybe she'll buddy up to another dog.
