Contrary to popular opinion, wallowing is not in the least an easy thing to do, which is why the baby rhino featured in the video above appears both utterly clueless and a tad clumsy when its mom makes it take a mud bath.

The video was shot at the Lion Country Safari in West Palm Beach a few days back, and the baby rhino's name is Anna.

According to the staff at said animal sanctuary, Anna was born this past April 6. Because of its young age, it appears to be having troubles managing to keep its limbs well under control.

Just for the record, rhinos wallow because the coating they get when doing so serves to protect them against insects and sunlight.

“Mud, mud, glorious mud, nothing quite like it for cooling the blood!” reads one witty comment to this video.
