This is the adorable moment a baby elephant gives a man a big kiss as they cuddle on the ground.
The footage, taken by an onlooker, shows the elephant wrapping its whole mouth around the delighted man’s face before tickling him with its trunk.
The two then lie side by side on the ground as the elephant makes several unsuccessful attempts to get up.
It was filmed at Patara Elephant Farm in Chiang Mai, Thailand, where multiple onlookers had their phones in their hands to capture the cute moment.
At the start of the clip the elephant is on all fours while the man lies on his back, looking happily up at the animal.
The elephant then bends down, opens its mouth wide and brings its face towards the man’s head, as spectators shriek in delight.
It then brings its trunk round, tickling the man’s face and placing one of its front legs on its new friend’s chest.
Keeping his eyes closed but still smiling, the man makes no effort to resist the much larger animal as it clambers on top of him.
After wriggling to one side the elephant starts trying to get up but ends up lying side by side with his visitor.
Finally deciding to get up, the man has to disentangle himself from the elephant’s trailing legs before he finally gets up with the help of another visitor
