VIDEO: Baby elephant chases birds around and it's the happiest thing ever

Maybe he's channelling Dumbo.

It's hasn't been a great week for news from the animal kingdom so we all need a reminder that it's not all bad.

Kruger National Park in South Africa posted this adorable video of a baby elephant joyfully chasing birds.

And a baby elephant can never fail to cheer anyone up.

Maybe he's trying to emulate Dumbo and take off.
