| Description: | MILLY AND MOLLY Hippos and elephants have baths at the zoo. United Kingdom MLS 2 elephants heading into their own concrete swimming pool, wading down sloped bottom until water is up to their shoulders- -and then they seem to enjoy lowering themselves further into the water. MS elephant wading in shoulder-deep water; she suddenly turns and heads straight at camera, making a big splash; she stands inches in front of camera, calmly watching. MLS tilt down: elephants in pool. MLS elephant stands on slope coming out of pool; a zoo worker sprays her with hose. MS tilt up: water spraying at 2 elephants who hold their trunks up while the guy directs spray into their mouths. MS man reaching through bars into the wide open mouth of a hippopotamus- -he's grabbing the huge tongue and wiggling it back and forth, for no reason one can see. MLS side view: he pats around on the hippo's mouth- -the animal must like it because he's staying right there with mouth open. LS hippo in middle of round pool, again with mouth wide open, shaking head around; then closes mouth and looks complacently at camera. MS hippo in pool standing by spray nozzle. Hippo in pool almost all underwater. | |
