A Call to the Herd

According to Chailert, Hom Nuan used her melodic trumpeting to capture their attention, inviting them to share in her fun. “Hom Nuan went swimming, but her two elephant friends refused to join her,” Chailert explained. “So, she called out with joy, letting them know how much fun she was having.”
Her expressive calls not only highlight the intelligence of these majestic creatures but also the deep emotional bonds they share. While her friends lingered on the shore, Hom Nuan’s spirited enthusiasm transformed an ordinary moment into a heartwarming spectacle.
