RE: Elephants, the gentle giants. A wonderful experience to see them in the wilderness

in #animals7 years ago

Thanks for your response. And do please consider sending us some information about the social behaviour of the elephants.
I recently saw a video about some impressive temples from ancient India. The speaker hypothesized that the extremely heavy stones that were used had to have been moved by elephants, and he showed a movie where two elephants moved a very large boulder. One was at each end of the boulder -- one pulling a rope and the other pushing on the boulder.
They had to be cooperating in a human-like manner to do that, and they had to have much more than ordinary intelligence to understand the human request to move the boulder. And they move the boulder in a very specific direction along the roadway.
The speaker explained that there are people whose profession involves learning to communicate with the elephants, and then direct the elephants to do a great variety of things.
Concerning the coin addresses that donors can use, I am very happy to have your news. I plan to use them when I post a piece where my effort was very significant (a few days of work), and I feel that among those who understand what is in the peace, there will be some who believe that the value that it conveys deserves more than what one receives from a Steemit reward. So, thanks for this news.
