It's no surprise that a dog loves playing catch — but an elephant?
狗狗喜欢玩接球游戏不奇怪，但为什么大象也爱？
Our charming pictures show Bubbles, a rescued orphan elephant, picking up a ball with her trunk to tease Bella the labrador, who can just about reach her pal’s knee.
在这组非常赞的图片中，被营救的孤儿大象Bubbles 和拉布拉多犬Bella 在玩接球游戏，Bubbles用象鼻捡起球逗Bella，Bella只能够到自己小伙伴的膝盖。
She dives into a pool of water, but that doesn’t deter the pooch, who tries to get her paws on the ball by climbing onto Bubbles’ back.
Bubbles 跳进游泳池里，但这无法阻止Bella对球的争取欲望，她跳到Bella 的背上努力够着球。
‘They just love to romp around together,’ says Bhagavan Antle, director of the wildlife park in California where the two friends live.
这两只小伙伴生活在加利福利亚的野生动物公园，负责人Bhagavan Antle 表示：“他们俩就是喜欢一起嬉戏玩耍。”
Bubbles and her other animal friends are part of a wild life conservation effort called The Rare Species Fund in Southern California.
Bubbles 和她的其他动物同伴，都得益于“南加利福利亚稀有物种基金” 的动物保护工作。
The trainer describes her as 'small and helpless for an elephant' on the animal's Facebook page, after her parents were killed for their tusks during a 20 year slaughter which ended with the ban on ivory import in 1989.
培训师在Bubbles的脸书页面描述说她是“一只看起来又小又无助的大象”，Bubbles 的父母死于象牙交易的大屠杀中，这场持续了20年的大屠杀在1989年因为象牙进口禁令才终结。
