Fully grown elephants may be known for their strength and dignity, but their young can rival kittens in the cute stakes. While holidaying in Chiang Mai, Thailand, in June 2012, Brad Wishen caught this beautiful video of a newborn elephant trying to stand up for the first time. With the encouragement of his mother and onlookers, the calf tries his best to make it to his feet, but, alas, it was not to be. Credit: Twitter/@taste_toronto
