Elephant balance beam

During the elephant playtime/keepers talk, there's a lot of activity going on.

I'm always impressed by the elephants' balance. On the "balance beam" log, the adult elephants can balance on just 2 legs, and can turn around without stepping off the log.

On this occasion, i don't think Tang Mo got a chance to fully display her skill, as Tukta wanted to join in the fun on the log. I love the way Tukta follows Tang Mo off the log, but rushes back to the log when she notices that Luk Chai is having his turn walking along the log.
