This is the cute moment a six-month-old elephant was filmed laughing hysterically laughing during a game with her carer.

Laura-Jane, from Aberdeenshire, filmed the brilliant footage at the Maevang Elephant Camp, Chiang Mai,Thailand, during her two-month holiday to celebrating her graduation from university.

The baby elephant was filmed as it was entertained by one of the carers with a plastic bucket, and was seen having the time of her life with visitors looking on in amusement.

Laura-Jane, a PhD geology student, said she was moved by the elephant's innocence and playful nature during her time caring and feeding the baby animal.

She said: 'It made me feel so happy to see the elephant obviously having such a good time.

'We watched the baby being playful, relaxed and care-free all day.

'She seemed to be quite a cheeky little girl, and at one point even tried to eat my top.'

The elephant's mother can be seen trying to keep a close eye on her offspring as she is also being cared for by a park keeper.

Laura-Jane said: 'In the afternoon, we got to ride the older elephants for a little way through the jungle.

'The baby came along for a stroll and to have some fun.'

After originally being posted online in 2014, Laura-Jane recently re-shared the post much to the amusement of her Facebook friends.
