What happens

At a waterhole in Hwange, Zimbabwe, elephant after elephant arrives for a pool party, and the babies jump in first. A sable antelope with sword-like horns watches, lions nap under a tree, an elephant sprays a trunk-shower right at the ball, and a baby elephant tries its first keepy-up with its trunk.

Fun facts

  • An elephant's trunk can hold about 8 litres of water.
  • Baby elephants can't use their trunks well at first, so they wobble them around.
  • Sable antelope have huge horns that curve back like swords.
