This was a newborn baby elephant and mother. The researchers at Langoue Bai catalog every elephant, buffalo, and gorilla they see at the Bai. The mother had last been seen a short time ago without the child, so most likely the baby elephant was just a week or so old. We got to name it "Janet".

Gorillas at the Bai. The young one is riding on the mother's back.
