You can see Bella accidentally use Bubble's trunk as a slippery slide (at 0.20) and confidently dive into the water from her back. From the video above, I learned that as a calf, Bubbles had been left orphaned because of the ivory trade (don't support that trade by buying ivory items, peeps!) Bella was abandoned at the sanctuary by the contractor who was building Bubbles a swimming pool. The pair bonded over their love of the water.

I went searching for a video about this duo because I really wanted to see them playing:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RR0BlQzbOUk. They live at the Myrtle Beach Safari.

Weird to call a 32-year-old an orphan.
