In a heartwarming moment that's melting hearts, a baby elephant was seen celebrating its birthday. The video showed the little animal blowing off the candles and taking a bite of its special cake. The clip featured the tusker standing next to its caretaker and enjoying its birthday celebration.
The video opened with the elephant raising its tusk high into air to turn off the candles and eat the cutest “cake” ever — a vibrant platter of fruits.
The little one adorably stood beside its human in a serene outdoor setting at night. What it celebrating the special day at 12 midnight, like most people do?

The visuals captured dim lighting where the elephant posed in front of a beautifully arranged tray full of its favourite treats — bananas, watermelons, and corn — with a large candle placed at the centre.
The platter was shaped to resemble a traditional birthday cake, but with a healthy twist perfect for the young pachyderm.
In the first frame, the baby elephant playfully reaches out with its trunk, perhaps eager to dig into its birthday feast. The caretaker gently guides it back. He ensures the elephant doesn't hurt itself with the candle's flame. After blowing off the flame, the animal swallows a corn.
Instagram user 'Archit Madaan' posted the video online and it has since gone viral. It was shared by a popular meme and entertainment page "The Indian Sarcasm". The wholesome clip won the hearts of netizens and left them in "Aww".
"Happy birthday cutie", one commented. "Aawwweeeee cutie", replied another.
